Let me see if I can put this into words... When my truck starts it smokes, alot! But only for the first 30 seconds. Here is how it goes.
I start the truck from dead cold, 34* today, it smokes and sounds like it is missing.
Everytime the truck missis, there is a break in the smoke.
About 30 seconds later the engine smooths out and the smoking is over.
The idle advance is kickig up properly and it is way to early for the cold timing advace to shut off.
I am not sure if I am making sense, maybe I just need to do a .wmv
Any ideas on what is the cause? My first thought is maybe a few of the cylinders arent firing on the initial start up and then they start catching?
