Coolant found in CAC pipe?

[bigdirty]

I tore down my truck to do egr and oil coolers. When I was putting everything back together I noticed water dripping from the cold side CAC pipe. So I tasted it and it was coolant. How is coolant finding its way into the pipes?

Truck has egr delete forgot to mention that. There is also white smoke when warm. injector (s)?

I wouldnt think injectors. I would make sure the intake manifold isnt filled with coolant before doing much else

Intake was fine, had it off and cleaned it. Im thinking the coolant in my CAC pipes is causing the white smoke. How can i diagnose that? Im stumped..

you sure its coolant and not crank case vapor oil? What does the exhaust smell like?

 

[bigdirty]

ccv has been dumped for awhile. And the smoke just smells like diesel. The water in the pipes tasted sweet, like coolant. Cold starts are fine fires right up and no smoke. There was also a sort of jelly in the bottom of the cold side pipe, it was smoky clear in color. It reminded me of the jelly formed by the ford gold coolant.
