| On several occasions with the truck there have been significant amounts of smoke bellowing from the exhaust. in some cases, other autos believe the vehicle was on fire. injectors have been found to be faulty on three occasions requiring replacement at significant costs. smoke from the exhaust is due to the faulty injectors not allowing fuel into the engine so as a result the engine is burning only oil and no diesel fuel. engine is exposed to excessive heat and could start on fire. *jb | |||
