    A little bit of smoke is normal, a lot of smoke is not and most likely be a blown head gasket. If this were true, you might also see white sludge in the oil and oil in your coolant.

    Keep an eye on the timing cover area. Some of these trucks have been prone to issues in that area.

    These Trucks only come with a set amount of factory smoke. It is NOT good to release any factory smoke especially factory electrical smoke. :spy:

    As with all internal combustion engines a certain amount of combustion gases will seep past the piston rings on the compression stroke...
