truck smoking

OK, I just had my turbo pedistal repaired... new o rings and seals and spring?...ugh the dealer did it....Should have did it myself, but I had no time....

Anyways...now my truck is puffing white smoke....when it sits at an idle...and when you hit the acelerator and also normal driving....a good amount of it too..

I had a superchip running in it...Now I am running stock...I pulled the chip before it went to the dealer.....Anyone have an suggestions?

2000 f-250 with a 7.3

I tell you what...this sounds a little weird. You weren't puking white smoke before they worked on it. (right?) They "fixed" the O rings. And now your truck is shooting out white smoke. Sounds like THEY goofed it. I'd be asking THEM to pay for the turbo repair. Sounds like THEY either put someone else's turbo on your truck, or messed up when putting the turbo back on. I'd be more than a little concered.
