    Incomplete combustion ( low compresson or retarded timing) will smoke white.

    I did not put that together but I saw that in an 8V92 I rebuilt. Had the turbo inlet removed so I could steel plate it if needed. It was back firing smoke and stalling the turbo. Ran the rack again. The longer it ran the better it got. I did not like it but it was a specialized equipment holding up a big job. We put it to work. It straightened up and ran great for 6 months. Then it started rolling smoke (WHITE) and running very bad. Had two cold cylinders on one head. Bad seats.
