[strokinparker]

Hello......i have stock 7.3 with 181000. I am puffn blue smoke when i start it up cold or if it has been siting for hour or so. Any help is greatfully appreciated. BTW noticed this happening after running diesel kleen.

Is it just a puff? Or does it constantly chug smoke?

If it just happens at the first start of the day it may just be a couple of bad glow plugs.

Puffs...truck has new plugs and relay. Im thinking o rings?

let the glow plugs run a little longer and see if it clears up

Check after turbo intake for oil. Might have bad seals in the turbo.

No oil in turbo tubes. However i changed fuel filter and it was nasty. Grayish black nastiness.... i drailed the entire bowl and wiped it out.
