    Is this the only area it's in? If so if you parked on a dirt lot and were idling any amount of time , the air dyer exhausting will blow dust up like that. And running on roads where they have done concrete grinding. But if that area alone, i say dust blowup from airdryer

    Yeah only that area, my first thought was road dust, but since it's only right there I figured exhaust, but I'll crawl under and check air dryer this afternoon

    Ok, crawled under the truck, it appeared to be coming from air dryer based on the exhaust not having any dust on it. It's definitely a white discharge, not blue/grey, just looks that way on the black paint. I dumped the air, let the compressor go to work and when the air dryer kicked in, the air came out white.

    So next question, Why? What, if anything, do I need to do to remedy it.

    I suppose several already know but if not, we lost Martin & Chris in an accident this week. If you didn't know them they were an awesome couple. They have been here for just about ever and set down with me a few times and gave me great tips to succeed here at Mercer.

    I know they will be missed by many.

    I would say your air compressor is failing. Does the air smell like coolant?
