Hazey White Smoke???
 
I noticed today when I was out just putting around looking at deer that my truck at idle has started puffing a hazey white smoke. I just put a Bully Dog Power Pup on it a few days ago and just noticed it today. The truck only has 77,xxx miles so I'm not that worried about it because it is still under warranty but I would like to know whats going on. Any help would be great. Thanks

Yea it looks just like that. I haven't taken the programmer off yet, did yours do it as bad without the programmer?

Welcome to the world of junk programmers. Crazy timing and poor fuel spray patterns...

You'd be better off with a custom tuned SCT. The highest horsepower tunes for the SCT are safer on your motor and your transmission than any of the other generic "programmers" out there.

With that said, these thigs COULD have happened on a stock truck, but running the generic programmers almost guarantees it.

I'd lose the bullydogs guys. Just my thoughts.:c:

Since you are already smoking, smell the smoke. Is it fuel? (it will burn your eyes and you will smell it). Or is it coolant? (sweet smelling). If it's coolant you either have blown your headgaskets, or ruptured your EGR cooler.

You can rebuild these too, don't have to replace completely.
