Dealer said the injector timing is retarded and the engine is starving for fuel. Says he has seen a couple come from the Calhoun facility like this (I'm in Macon,GA). Going to pick it up today and I will post the results after a long weekend of work with it.

Once again, thanks for all of the replies.

At the risk of displaying my ignorance, Red, how about using common terms,
i.e. OSB, KSB. I'm pretty savy with terms used on gasoline engines as I have worked on them a lot in the past, but never having to do mechanical repairs on my diesels, kow (knock on wood), Im not familiar with them. Looking at the diagrams that refer to such tems, I can figure out their functions. Having a 5525, just thinking ahead if I should encounter problems as such in the future.
By the way, weather recently was down to 29 F, my 5525 fired up with turn of the key.

Dealer advanced the injector timing about 1/16 of an inch and big red is running stong, no smoke at all.

Put it to the test this weekend and couldn't be happier.
