Hey I'm working on an 05 f550 for family, they are telling me that this truck sometimes will white smoke really bad. It can do it anytime doesent matter when. They say it will at idle, start up, or driving down the road, it is using coolant but never over heats, no sign of water in the oil.
I have drove the truck a few times and I can't get it to smoke at all except fuel smoke. But I did add 1/2 gallon of water, can anyone help me figure this one out! Thanks!! Oh and this is the second engine for the truck,
 
I'd say it has a bad egr cooler.
