| Junior Member | loud knocking/smoking e-way breakdown This truck is killing my trust. 2004 LB7 8 injectors done in 2010 Cyls 1,3,5,7 done in 2011 Thanksgiving day i passed a vehicle and noticed a puff of black smoke. I get off the gas and its knocking. Bad. Instantly knocks upon startup and is not driveable. Chugs black smoke too. No codes are being thrown. Truck got towed 150miles and is now at the diesel shop. Any suggestions?

| The FICM balances the injectors to keep down harmonic vibrations in the crank. If an injector is going bad the rate at which it injects fuel is compromised and the FICM will pull or add fuel to try and keep the crank balanced. Anything + or - 4.0 is considered out of spec and needs to be replaced. Have the shop tell you the balance rates... |

Should I look into such things as the harness shorting out around alternator and/or the ice pick trick?

| Junior Member | The work was performed at a dealer thru the previous owner. Do they use a standard replacement or do you have the option of remans?
