Default exhaust smoke is too white
the exhaust smoke is whiter than it should be and since i have turndowns, it leave a wetness on the ground... does this mean its running too lean? if so how do I go about fixing this... FPR?

Yeah, if you're not burning coolant off then you're fine. There's 2 permenant grayish/bloack spots on my driveway from the water vapor and hc from the car warming up in the am.
