Yesterday I went to Auckland some 3 hr drive. I had been getting a p0207 code but was not a concern as it was intermittent and drove ok. That has changed. We are now on 9 cylinders and trailing fuel smoke. This morning I pulled #7 spark plug yeah it was black. Fuel out end of exhaust, oh dear. Anyway swapped the plug into #1 hole started up and was perfect back on 10. Went for a blast down the road and once warmed up we were back on 9 trailing smoke, fuel smoke. So I have washed her up and parked away until the big tune happens. I wasn't planning that so soon as I did over extend myself to get her in the first place. I will be reading up and learning what and who etc to get what I need done. I also had oil sitting in 2 spark plug holes, hopefully only a rocker cover gasket.
I only want 600hp at flywheel I am happy with that. I just want to make it more efficient and reliable.
I am not a drag racer just like to give her a blast every now and again. Won't be towing either. Our climate here is very boring coldest we get in winter morning is 5C and hottest in summer 30C and that is not often.Usually around 20C. Heat is not an issue. Oh yeah we are at sea level in fact it is just across the road. Truck has now done 68k miles
My thoughts are maybe Coils?
Leads?
Injectors??
Injector wires?
Will be getting new plugs.
SCT tool & Torrie Tune?
I also need to fix my whistling throttle shaft when hot, do they have seals?
What else should I do?
Thanks in advance
