White smoke when accelerating
Searched for a similar post but couldn"t find my problem. My 06 will puff out a little white smoke when I accelerate from a stop sign or stop light. Truck already had the egr delete done, Not using any oil or coolant. Injectors or what? It has plenty of power and other wise absolutely no issues.. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

I had had this problem twice. Both times it was the turbo seal. Gpop shop can sell you the seal kit for under $150 to fix it yourself - Benchwrench did a great write-up in the tech folder on this. Or you can get yourself a powermax turbo. My first was repaired under warranty which meant a new reconditioned turbo from Ford. That lasted less than 10K mi (but the warranty was done) so then I went for the powermax. 4 yrs later, no more white smoke or turbo troubles.
