[QUOTE="firehunter, post: 897439, member: 1162"] I live just over a mile from the nearest paved road and take my kids to the bus stop almost every morning. Most morning are below freezing, I let the truck idle (and smoking) for around 3-4 minutes then gently drive to the bus stop - usually 3rd gear the whole way. During this drive the smoke will eventually go away just in the couple of minutes, EGT's get right around that 500* mark. Once I get there I put it in high idle and after a couple more minutes the smoke [I]will come back[/I]. The EGT's were over 500* but only for a couple of minutes, EOT's haven't reached 50* yet. That's a lot of oil to heat up. On Edit: I asked about this issue a while back as well...
