You might want to cut back on the bean burritos man. With farts like that, you should see a doctor.
Also important is maybe informing us some info on your "truck." Year, engine, turbo or NA, mileage, how long ago you replaced your IP, injectors, fuel filter, etc. When the farting occurs, like when it's cold, or if you are on the highway, etc. Information can help. Or I'll just keep imagining you farting.

My truck does the EXACT same thing, check your intake for excessive oil coming out of the cdr.
Personally I think mine is just worn injectors, I've been collecting shims so I can rebuild a set I have set back

White smoke is retarded timing when in this context.
This can be either due to base timing being retarded, or lack of fuel pressure due to a blockage somewhere, like in the fuel pickup tube in the tank. Of course, a blockage will also result in reduced power.
Rebuilding a set of injectors with new shims and increasing the pop pressure to stock... will make the problem worse, not better.
I'm not saying you *don't* want to rebuild your injectors... But you need to bump the timing to compensate at the same time.
Typically, a worn IP will start having screwy and retarded timing long before anything else fails; it's just kind of how the IPs wear.
