Do yall see that too? As soon as the engine is warm and I come to stop at a traffic light, I see small amounts of smoke coming from somewhere around the driver side headlight. When I open the hood I cant see where its coming from. I also have the open EHM. The hose goes under the vehicle into a open part of the frame, next to the lower control arm.

Is it possibly dripping on something hot? Some parts of the frame could get rather warm during operation (like areas attached to the front diff).

I see smoke/vapor sometimes at night in front of the headlight when I'm sitting at a light or stop when there is a tailwind and I have the ORM. :evil:

My EHM is run down to the frame under the driver side floor and I see smoke all the time when I'm stopped. Its expected, its a crank case vent.

I read somewhere on here that someone was going to weld a bung onto the tail pipe to vent it out that way, but it doesn't bother me that much, I've got better things to do with my time.

It is your EHM...just depends on the wind direction...I just think of it as Diesel Nitrous
