Running Rich!!! I had LT's installed about 2 months ago. It's pretty sluggish as is, but now I'm noticing smoke after start at idle, and occasionally at diffrent times. It's not oil smoke, it's more of a whitish foggy color. What kind of sign is this, except the fact I need a tune. Will it hurt driving like this? I drive 200 miles in all every weekend back and forth to school.
Is the smoke just now starting to show up? The only thing I can think of would be just dew build up in the exhaust burning off or something like that. Happens to me all the time right at startup if it's been sitting overnight when it was somewhat cold outside. I wouldn't worry about it if you said it doesn't smell like oil. The sluggishness is most likely because you need a tune and the 2.73s are exacerbating the situation.

Well, I'm sure it's not dew because it will do it in the middle of the day, even after I've drove it for a while it will smoke. I think it's because of the excess gas entering the combustion chamber. I was just wondering what other peoples opinions were, on what it might be. It does need a tune bad; it's still fast, but it's just sluggish with throttle response, especially just cruising around town. When I'm on the interstate though, it seems to be fine....
