Message: [QUOTE="JMart, post: 688566, member: 263"] I am getting a cloud of blue smoke every time I pull away from a light. Its a large cloud that blows out from 0-5mph then stops after that. The truck runs fine, accelerates great, doesnt smoke at idle or after it picks up speed. This all started after an oil change. About two weeks ago I decided to do the fuel filters and change the oil. I did the fuel filters first then drained the oil. I went up top to pull the filter out and after trying to get the filter off the cap I realized I had an aftermarket filter on the truck. It was to late in the day on a Saturday to get a Ford cap so I had to wait until Monday. Monday morning I put a new cap on and fired the truck up. It ran fine. Less than 20 miles later I noticed the smoke. I pulled over to check the truck out but it wasn't doing anything. I had the wife rev it up both out of gear and in gear with her foot on the brake. No smoke. I drove home, smokes pulling away from every light. Next morning I get up and check the oil, I had over filled it :doh:. I put the oil in after I realized I didn't have a filter and I was distracted. So I drain enough oil down to get the dipstick to read in the middle of the range. Truck still smokes. Drove it for about 50 miles during the week. Smoke never went away. So I decided maybe it was the oil. I was running a synthetic blend rotella. I changed the oil again with less than 100 miles on it to a mobil conventional oil yesterday. Drove across town with my AE hooked up looking for anything wrong I could find. Drove about 25 miles at 70-75 on the highway. No issues found. Come back down the side streets, smoke at every intersection I stopped at. So what did I do? How can I make it stop? The truck is all stock except for a 4" exhaust with no cat. 92k miles. [/QUOTE]
