Dodge Ram Exhaust/Smoke Questions
I have a 4.7 V8 2007 RAM 1500 with 6K miles.
There is a puff of blue smoke at a cold startup for about the first 20-30 seconds. Oil changed twice once at 3000 and at 5900 miles by the dealer. No need to ask the dealer because everything is normal to them. Wonder if this normal or is the oil seals leaking? Only one other vehicle I had did this and it was 99 F150 4.6. I also have a 05 CARAVAN 3.3 that does not puff blue smoke even after sitting 4 or 5 days nor did the 05 Chevy Colorado I had.

I have a 94 Ram 1500 and all I had done to it was gutting the cat, adding a 2 chamber flowmaster and ran duals out from there turned down behind the rear axles. Honestly the best sounding Ram I've ever heard ......it truely rumbles...often asked if I had a mustang 5.0 converted or engine work done to it
Thanks,
