No smoke when accelerating. Doesn't matter whether engine is cold or warm. Not consistent -- some days worse than others. Any idea what my problem is? Thanks,

Probably injectors. The pintle is not seating tightly so fuel dribbles into the cylinder while it is sitting, that is the usual culprit with those symptoms.

Are you seeiny excessive oil usage or mileage problems?
 
So far I have not seen any noticeable changes. Shortly we will be going south for the winter and I will keep a close eye on both and see what happens.

Thanks for the reply.

If you don't drive the truck much an injector cleqning may be worth a shot to see if it is actually wear on components or just gummed up injectors.

We picked up CRC Injector Cleaner from Napa. We will give this a try on our trip south to see if it is going to clean it up and we will go from there. Thanks for the information cerberusiam.
