Hello all,
I suddenly got a number of problems with my m1009 today after moving a load of firewood 4 miles between my yard and house in an M101. When I dropped the trailer, the truck began to make a tinny rattling noise and started to smoke lightly (greyish smoke). On the way back to the yard, the truck lost all power, began to pour out black smoke, felt like a miss, and occasionally had a poppong/clunk noise. When I got to the yard, it was making a popping sound from around the air cleaner area and when I would bring the revs up, it would pour out more black/greyish smoke. Eventually, it just stalled and would only restart after lots of cranking and holding the throttle all the way down but it would still not rev up. It currently has 83k on the clock and has had a full service with fluids and all filters about 100 miles ago. Additionally, I tried another fuel filter to no avail. This truck always idled rough and rattled like it was going to fall apart ever since I got it from GL but it has never let me down. I am thinking either the injector pump or injectors or both but I would like to make sure it is in fact them before I tear into it. My other tought is that I may have swallowed a valve but wouldn't that simply lock the motor up when the affected piston is in the up stroke? What do you guys think.......
Thanks in advance,
Ziggy
