so my 08 has always puffed a white puff at first start up of the day. kinda looks like an older 350 that has leaking valve guides. it goes away like 1/2 second later.
So this morning the boy and i were headed to go moto, temp was high teen low 20's the first 15 miles was flat ground, truck up to temp.
then the decent happens, it's about 20 miles long. i notice out the tail pip every now and then white smoke. puff here puff there. sometimes a longer trail. 300 yards long. has to be in the shadow to see it. in the morning sun it's non detectable. so my thought was the cold air temp maybe? or is it time to buy injectors? do i have to have a dealer set the codes? or can a local mechanic shop do it for me. i asked one, he said for Some of them he can. i was not crazy about his responses to my questions. anyhow.
anything else i should check.?
Oil level is fine. doesn't smell of fuel,
mpg's are ok. got 18 round trip today. with two bikes in the bed and loaded of gear. runnin 72.
