Hi Guys, I'm new here. I have a cat 257B that is having some engine trouble. I think it might be the turbo, but hoping its not a cylinder. It will start, but has no power and will blow smoke. It also has a rattle, that sounds like it's in the turbo area. I have attached a video of me starting it. After starting it a couple of times it seems to not really want to start again. Any help about what might be the issues would be appreciated.

For some reason I didn't. Ill check that, but kindof don't think that's the issue. Good thought though. Maybe Ill be happily surprised :)
