I thought: some white smoke was normal/Lots of white smoke is coolant/blue smoke is oil/and black smoke was the diesel?

No other mods that we are aware of i have the same truck with the same mods and it burns clean all the time im just wondering if its because its a florida truck ?the truck runs better than mine in all ways it only has 80,000 m on itThe only problem is the smoke after an ideling period
