White Smoke Until Warm
Hey fellas,
Got another issue. Other posted issues were resolved. The skip was from the Oil pressure regulator. However, I also unknowingly had a blown turbo. Replaced it with the factory Garrett brand and now I am having some white smoke billowing out the stack when its cold. The truck actually feels like its missing if you drive it before its in the normal op range. I believe it is getting too much fuel to cause this, or I have a faulty glow plug relay or bad glow plugs. I'm starting to become irritated
. I am praying its not a blown headgasket. One of the reasons that I believe that it is a glow plug related problem is because the smoke goes away after warming up and the exhaust does not smell like anti-freeze. I will be checking the levels just to be sure.
Thanks for any input,
Mitch

I will definitely be getting the LED asap. Also I am trying to sell my DP-tuner comes with everything except instructions, with tunes: stock,80 econ,140 agress, 140 supersmoke, lope. Buyer will have to get the chip programmed for their PCM.
If anyone can post a link where I could repost this add it in the appropriate area it would be great!
Thanks,
Mitch
