Default 2005 F350 Turbo Diesel Powersoak blowing thick white smoke from start to finish.

this is a 6.0. does anyone know what this is from. can it be an injector. i've heard egr cooler, oil cooler. i messed with i think is the egr cooler and it looks to be plugged in. i don't smell coolant in the white smoke. it more smells like gas maybe but it's hard to tell. i have mostly water in my coolant ... any ideas. thank you very much in advance! ACTUALLY IT'S THICK GREY SMOKE.

Take a clean rag, and swipe a sample of the inside of the tail pipe.

I suspect you'll find oil. If you do find oil one possible reason is the turbo leaking oil.

Let us know what you find.
