Something let go, now she's spouting blue smoke out the exhaust bad, still starts and runs smooth with good power.
Huge frigging cloud when driving slow around town Taking off from a stop light is so embarrassing to say the least. Not so bad when wound up on the highway but can still get some blue smoke. Thought we noticed a little yesterday driving around Fayettenam but today was bad....Sumbeach.
I was so pissed I went to Chebby, Dodge and Ford dealers shopping around and almost traded it.
So much for the cosmetic portion of the makeover. Back to the mechanicals.
Rebuild or not.........Taking a hard look at dropping in a Cummins 5.9 liter 6BT/6BTA and seriously considering the 3.9 liter 4BT/4BTA. I've driven a few 6000 lb Dodge M37's with the 4BT conversions so I know the power they put out.
Now I gotta get my @$$ back in the shop and start selling everything I own on evilbay to raise some more play money before it on me
