smokes when it warms up - F-Series & SuperDuty Diesel Forums

bigguy36 · 01-17-2012, 01:40 PM

I have a 2008 6.4 f 350 dually with 63000 miles.

the question is that when I start driving it runs fine and no smoke but after 4 to 6 miles I get some white smoke from the exhaust for maybe 30seconds to a 1 and 1/2 minutes then it stops anyone give me an idea what it is. I just putsome cetone in it and this morning it seemed to smoke more.

any ideas may be helpful.
not sure it is covered on the warrenty

bigguy36. Sorry about your smoke. I don't know much about the 6.4. Some one will chime in shortly.

Sounds a bit like mine .. not all the time just once in a while ?? that is what mine does . I figured it's a sticking injector clears right up usually after a mile or 2 ..Told service advisor about it at sanderson they want 150 to check it out.. but it needs to be sticking when they check it...

On the one is it smoking all the time and what color is your smoke ???
{ I dropped a valve on my 2006 was constant dark stream b4 it blew}

it is a white smoke. thought the first time I saw it it was just steam. but if I park it like to go to a place for dinner about a mile or 2 down the road it doee it again for about a 1/2 mile to a mile.

Dogman ? a recall on what ?? i know on the o6 they had plenty but on the 6.4 ?

Dogman · 01-17-2012, 07:51 PM

Here is one on the CAC.
The other was a note from FOMOCO about sticking injector on early 08. I cant find that one. But it should be covered under the 100K warranty.

Thanks Dogman I am sure the Dealer can tell if this has been done on Mine.

Mine was built in 2007 not sure of the month.

I will check
