Suggest a "smoke test" on the intake system...

Thanks for the reply Scottydog, I can't remember if they had the truck overnight or not, but point taken and I will question them about it......I'm not sure about these bigger diesel trucks....I have owned the Ford 7.3's and 6.0's and could work on them inside and out. But this truck I drive a whole lot more and not sure about what I am doing with it.
