Blue Smoke Question

[usaf2006]

At work and search function won't work. Truck has 109k miles, and started smoking blue possibly black yesterday. Ran seafoam through gas tank about 300 miles ago, don't think that would do anything. What are some other causes that could be contributing?
Thanks y'all!

Is the smoking on acceleration?, deceleration?, when you start it? Or all the time?

 

[usaf2006]

On start up and idle as well as revving. Going to go for a ride in a minute here to warm it up all the way and see if theres change.

smell sweet?

The tail pipe does not smell sweet really. I'll have to smell it while running. The pipe almost smells like seafoam, which make me think I may be burning off carbon deposits? Would it take 200-300 miles for them to fall off and get burnt up? Would there be many in the fuel and intake areas that would go into the cylinders to get forced out the end?

Smells like regular exhaust now. Not smoking too much, just a little bit every so often. Hard to tell what color it is since it's bright out and not much coming out.

Keep an eye on your oil level to see if the engine is burning it up. Hopefully it's just from the seafoam.

That's what I'm hoping too.
