5.4 smoking.........
Whenever I start my truck, it lets out a cloud of black smoke which disapperas and then white smoke starts comin out from the exhaust. What can this be????
I am also having trouble on startup. I dont know if they have anything to do with each other but they started at the same time. When I star my truck sometimes it starts with a bit of trouble and I have to give a little gas to make sure it gets goin. Other times it crqanks but doesnt start up. Then when I crank it again, it takes a couple seconds of cranking before it starts up.

My 2003 SD with the 5.4 smokes every startup when it's cold. It is a gray/black color. I assume it is a rich start mixture issue. My truck has done it since new and it has 9,000 miles now. I am waiting until next winter to take it back. I had a 99 V10 before this one and it did it too with 75,000 miles. Very embarassing.
