-
hey guys. well 2 days ago i changed the injectors of the truc . still smokes the same. mechanics like rebuild the head. do you guys think it will be the head? it doesnt lose any coolant

Make sure you guys are talking the same size gallons when you're talking fuel mileage. Only 3.8 L in a US gallon remember. MPG's in the US suck LOL. -
he opened it up and the head had to minor cracks so im like ill just get those fixed. hes like the head gasket was bad. i got the 6nz tune ran a load to kentucky before the break. truck would derate but it felt more free. i didnt get to drive the truck after the injectors since it was in the break. we seen it smoke the same after truck cooled down we just opened up the head. now its sent to be rebuilt. we put rebuilt injectors all 6.

also i need to get a new plate for the head. mechanic said the piston sleeb hit it and said it cant buff out need to buy one. i should have took pictures. i think shops shut down for these 2 days. so i think ill have to make the monday run in my 04 columbia.

If you have a 6NZ file in it then there should be no boost derate?
-
Sounds like you have gotten in to a mess, I hope you tech is pulling the liners for that failed head gasket or you will be in the same position very soon. The engine will never run properly if you did not use Cat reman injectors, I have not found anyone in Ontario that can rebuild and calibrate Cat injectors.
rank Thanks this.
