Still having this white smoke issue!!

Ok, new rebuilt injectors, new o rings, new fuel filter, but still having the white smoke on normal take off and sometimes it puffs white smoke going down the road. Truck runs great but this smoke issue is really getting on my last nerve. I have been so good to this truck and put quit a bit of money into her. oh, and it didn't ever start doing this till maybe a couple months ago, then all of a sudden it started this smoke issue while driving!

I plan on getting a gauge to check it within the next couple weeks, man I hope all checks out with the compression. I just always thought if something was wrong there it would smoke all the time. While trucks idles, no smoke, then sometimes on take off and going through gears it smokes and others no smoke at all. Smells like fuel and is white, grayish color

If it is fuel that is grey-ish, that means there is either fuel being injected too long (injector not closingfully/quick enough) or not enough compression to burn well.

I looked at them best I could, but wouldn't I be getting fuel in the coolant. My coolant level stays the same and has not moved

I have noticed mine only smokes while giving the truck throttle, no smoke while coasting or on deceleration and sometimes no smoke while acceleration. I was under the impression that if I had a compression issue it would smoke all the time............
