If you have fuel in the oil.............It's most likely injectors.

anybody know about the waranty? I though it was 200k? might be a time deal though.

Good luck and hope you get back on the road soon.........

I was working on buying an 01 with 176k on it and noticed that it was blowing pretty bad white smoke. Took it to a chevy dealer and ended up being 4 bad injectors and 2 blown head gaskets. They are going to warranty the injectors for some reason. Not sure if the dealer that had it is going to fix the head gaskets or not but now I am shopping again :mad:

But that doesn make sense with white smoke(even when good and warm) and fuel in the oil HaHA:confused: Im hoping newly will chime in cause i didnt here back from him today he told to ask for a print out of something to do with the injectors cant remeber what?? but glow plug issues just dont sound right

Get it away from that $hitty dealer and get it to Hi Country. They are straight up and will help you.
