hey guys, just a quick question on a 95 7.3. i have noticed and extreme loss of power lately and then went to start it yesterday and would only turn over and after about ten seconds white smoke started billowing out of the tail pipe. i shot it with just a touch of ether and boom it fires up. well i go to close the hood and notice smoke coming out behind the turbo. after closer llook i think it is coming out of where the metal clamp is holding the exhaust and turbo together. not sure if there is a gasket in there or what. i tightened it up and still leaking. the truck has 165k on it and i live in arizona so it was about 60 degrees outside. not sure what happened. if the glow plug relay went bad would it keep it from starting, if so where can i get the best replacement and is it real hard to change. thanks alot.
