truck hard start ...... hpop or lpop issue
Please I know there's a lot of info here if u need to know anything else just ask cause I'm worried
I have a 97 f350 cclb zf5 with somewhere around 350000 plus km
So I'm in need of some guidance
When I bought the truck it was not running amazing
But had little to no blow by
So I went to get an etest cause I live in Ontario failed bug time due to injectors so naturally my wife bought me swamps baby swamps with new glow plugs uhh harrness and gaskets
While I waited for the new injectors to arrive I ditched the dual steel tanks and selector cause the selector was broke and rear tank was rotten
So in goes a 03 mid ship tank which I cleaned and cleaned again pick up and cause I wasn't sure about the stock mechanical fuel pump I installed a 6.0l pump n filter and a holly 4 to 9psi fuel pressure regulator which I hooked to the stock fuel lines on the frame and regulated down from 60 to 9psi...
(In my head I'm using the 6.0l pump as a lift pump to assist the mechanical)...
Now I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not since I think I am pumping to the fuel bowl but I'm not sure. If attached to the fuel line on the frame
Then got the injectors installed with the new glows harnesses and gaskets and a fresh oil change and new fuel and 2 new batteries hydra 15 with swamps custom tunes and Donaldson 6637 filter
Got the truck started with and expected amount of cranking....
But now every time I try to start the truck it take about 1 min to 1.5 of cranking to get started.ihave little to no blow by but I have very light studders/miss at idel
But at around 2000rpm there is very noticeable studders/miss and a fair amount of white smoke which smells like unburnt fuel or raw fuel
There is no smell of coolant or oil and when I did the oil change there was no water or coolant in the oil
Keep in mind that there is no drive time since all that work was done and maybe has about 9min of run time total
I could be out to left field but any help would be greatly helpful
I am going to bypass the 6.0l pump n reg and just run the mechanical to see if there is a change
Also I have a buddy bringing a scan tool to check the hpop on Thursday
The truck is not on the road so I can't drive it so another question is what should the hpop be at around idel and will just revving the engine be good enough to test the hpop
