This is really just a question of curiosity more than anything else.
When I start the engine after the truck has sat for awhile, usually a week or more, I get whitish blue smoke that then goes away quickly. I am not burning any oil of significant as the level is dead solid. Compression and oil pressure are at spec etc so I am assuming that this is the result of a small amount of oil getting into the cylinders. Would this be via the valve stems? There is probably a simple answer I am missing and again there doesn't seem to be any issue associated with it but also curious if I should be concerned about something I am missing.
Thanks for the help.
