    Shim Kit Or Rail Plug For 2016 RAM Cummins

    I know this is an old post, but I was having a similar issue in 2015, except mine dumps a ton of white smoke when it falls on its face.

    It mainly happens to go from a dead stop or slow roll to like half throttle and generally only happens before the truck is up to temp.

    Like when I jump in and leave work, but it never happens at highway speeds or after it's been running for 30+ minutes.

    My fuel mileage also dropped drastically at the same time this issue started.

    Any ideas?

    I forgot to include mods: deleted with a 2nd Gen swap SX369 GDP tuning on EZ Lynk.

    White smoke, poor performance, and poor fuel mileage are all symptoms of a bad injector.

    It’s not providing the correct fueling for each cylinder stroke and causes those things to happen.

    Have you noticed a difference in EGT?

    How many miles on your truck?

    You could start with a fuel filter as well.

    If that doesn’t work pretty certain it’s an injector issue.

    It's at 142,000 miles right now, and I just did the fuel filters about 2000 miles ago.

    As far as EGT's I haven't really looked at that.

    My EZ Lynk monitor (cell phone) only shows so many data points on the screen, and EGT isn't one I leave pulled up normally, but I will check them today.

    I thought injector as well, just looking for some other insight to make sure.

    THANKS!
