1996 f350 5speed
Driving down the road while the truck was at normal driving engine temp. And just happen to look in my rear mirror and it was pouring out white smoke...truck stalled and wouldnt start.
Leading up to this i had a slight shake in the motor like i had a bad harness. Any thoughts?

I thought you had changed your UVCHs and pigtails on one of your trucks before?

Ive seen it done but ive never.
Would a bad harness/pigtail cause all that white smoke?

It could. Pull all four of the plugs off the valve cover gaskets and see if they are burnt or melted.
