Hello all I'm new here.
I still have cold start issues in the morning and I see the smoke spoken of in some of the posts here.
I just ordered a CD manual for the F250 off ebay.

Welcome to the fun, I guess you are new to diesels as well to this site.
I don't know if the chip has an affect on the cold start smoke and there are so many chips and so many different burns the chips could have on them it would be really hard to tell. You don't say what kind of smoke you are seeing. White smoke for the first start on a cold morning isn't that unusual.
In my experiance 25 to 30 isn't cold enough to see that much smoke. I don't start seeing smoke till it gets down to 10 to 15 and then it is gone in seconds. My truck is pretty much stock.
I was wondering who made the manual you got on ebay and how much did it end up costing? I'd be interested in knowing what you think of it after you get it, I have been thinking of getting one.
