The truck has been together almost 2 years.It doesn't use much oil,leaks around the valve covers,I figure that's where most of it goes.

I am going to do a compression check today,and a voltage check to make sure I have a good 12v source.Maybe some new wires and plugs are in order as well.

I have seen engines smoke 10x worse than this one and not foul a plug,that's why I don't think it's rings or guides.Could be wrong though,it happens on occasion

Thanks
