Please identify the vehicle, the year of the vehicle, normally aspirated versus turbo charged, and lots of pictures help of the engine with the doghouse cover removed
Then, we are better able to assist you.
There are some excellent Hummer mechanics who also do Humvees however, their skills with Hummer frequently exceeded their skill with Humvees.
What I’m trying to say is sometimes it is best to do it yourself

You have of course changed the fuel filter, checked to make sure you have positive pressure at the fuel filter water drain and it has fresh fuel yes??
And yes give the model number and the history of the truck (as you know it)

Smoke. What color? White, black, blue, grey? It is a diesel, so some smoke is normal. Like @Mogman said, change the fuel filter and make sure there is good clean fuel in it. Also, MV gauges can be incorrect. Put at least 5 gallons in it.
Does it start hard, meaning does it crank an extended amount of time before it fires? When cranking, does it smoke, if so what color?
After it lites off and runs a bit, does it clean up, smooth out and if shut off, will it restart right away or does it take a long time to re start?
And, it is not a good idea to put your phone number up in a not private place like here in open forums.
