So I've had my Mahindra Max 24 at work doing a little loader work for a concrete project. All has been great until it started getting a little hard to start. Worked all day and throttled fully down after letting it sit and cool off for 10 min and it died before I could hit the key. No huge problem, took the battery to a local shop, load test came back no good so I swapped it out with a new one. Perfect! Fired right up next day and ran with no issues at all until the last 3 loads of dirt. Started puffing white and kind of sounds like it's missing at full RPM. I babied it to try and get those last 3 scoops checking my gauges constantly to ensure it wasn't over heating. 2 scoops later it ran itself to full RPM from half and wouldn't shut off with the key. It will fire up beit a little slow still and it will run but it still sounds like it has a miss or something and it will smoke our shop out with white when it NEVER really even use to smoke at all.

Things I've tried:

*New battery
*New air filter
*New fuel filter is on the way
*Pulled the glow plugs to inspect them and tightened the bus between them
*Fresh oil
*Pulled the fuel shutoff solenoid and it works just as it should
*Checked my grounds
*Checked that charging system is working

Check the injectors..
It sounds as if u have a stuck nozzle..
Start the engine, get it smoking and loosen the line at the injector 1x1 retightening as u go..
Your looking for 1 that makes the smoke go away..
and that’s the troubled injector or cylinder..
Good luck
