So I go to start the truck today, all excited b/c i insured it. I checked the oil its in between the add full mark, so i cycled the plugs once and it started within 5 seconds but holy it was rough the truck was shaking violently and smoke with a light blue tinge (smelt of diesel) was pouring out of the exhaust. It was idling reaaaly rough so the exhaust was coming out in spurts if that makes sense. I shut it down b/c i was well scared. After i shutdown I rechecked the oil level right away and it was below the add mark a little but i assume thats b/c the rest of the oil is in the block. The smoke didnt smell sweet it just smelt like diesel (as it usually does). Today it is -10 Celsius and the truck was not plugged in. Please tell me it was only so rough b/c the truck was cold?
The truck hasnt been insured for three months but I did start it atleast twice a month, and two weeks ago i drove around the block and then put the winters on. It was fine. I pray to the diesel gods this isnt something catastrophic
