Smoke color

My truck smokes with my TS chip on the higher settings but my problem is when it smokes. Sometimes it is black and other times its a white/gray color smoke. This is when the chip is turned up and I am getting into it alittle. What could cause the white/gray smoke sometimes?

White/Grey smoke is more of a raw diesel, black smoke is partially burnt diesel.

What would be causing this "raw diesel"? How can it be fixed? Why does it only do it sometimes?

the black smoke is burnt fuel, and white/gray is un burnt fuel, could be from over fueling.
