Advice on a FLD120

I'm heading down now to get the truck now. I'm like a kid in a candy store lol. Be nice to change standing instead of bumping my head.

I really appreciate all the advice. I'll post pictures of everything once I get it to the house.

Hopefully I made a good investment if anything I got a newer engine for my 362.

 

If it's a 93 I am going to assume it may be a mechanical n14 with the stc injectors. Just look to see if there is an ecm or not.

 

A mechanical n14 is a great engine. Very reliable.

 

I know the guy said it was a N14 celect. If I remember right that was the first electronic N14 correct?

 

Here is what came up when I checked the VIN

If it is a celect it is electronic yes.

 

Well got the truck to the house ran pretty good. Only issue is either white or blue smoke when excellerating. I never see it when driving or at startup but wife's says she seen smoke coming out the exhaust.

I am wonder if this could be from the Jake brake.

 

White or blue, blue is usually oil and white can be to much diesel, air or oil as well. If it's been sitting run it a little bit and see what happens

 

Run it for a while. When I bought my old 3406A it smoked blue the first few times I ran it then it cleaned up quite a bit.

 

I was thinking the same maybe seals and what not or dry.
