When I first start the truck up it will steam like crazy. Changed the head gasket, at that time there was water in the oil. But after changing the head gasket, and two new oil changes. It still steams out of the tail pipe, expecially when first starting the truck and then shutting it off and restarting five minutes later. Any clue to my problem?

Could be a leaky intake manifold gasket or a cracked intake manifold.

Any water in the oil this time?

Hows the power steering fluid look, transmission fluid level? Coolant level?

When was the last time the fuel filter was changed and water remover added to the gas?

Ok, so the fluids are good so I would be suspecting bad gas, dirty fuel filter. About all it could be.
