I'm not familiar with that, can you explain? Do you mean the white smoke/hard start thread?

I guess thats the one I'm thinking about but I think I already found that one. Is there another one?

My wife dropped me at the airport on monday. I noticed when she pulled away a little puff of white smoke. It didn't happen at idle, only as she started to accelerate and then quickly went away. The truck was definately warm and up to temp. Probably in the low 50's outside.

That was more like what I was looking for. I thought there was one here on FTE but I read so much its hard to remember where everythings.

Reading that link it said "Normal when engine is cold or idling for extended periods." My truck did idle at the airport for atleast 20-30 minutes while I checked in a got my bags checked. Anyone think theres anything more to worry about or look in to?

After a 20 minute idle, a little puff of smoke is nothing to worry about IMO.
