[TC70C10]

I noticed the leak on Thursday night when I was adjusting the choke and I thought it was leaking down from the valve cover gasket. So I replaced that on Friday night. Got up early Saturday drove about 30 miles and stopped for adult beverages. When I parked the smoke poured out from under the hood. I checked the oil and it was still full. I decided to continue on and proceeded 8 miles to the base of the mountain for the 12 mile trip in 4wd up to the cabin. The trail takes about an hour and a half. At the halfway point I needed 3 quarts of oil. About 10 minutes later I guy flagged me down and said he saw a 3 foot flame under my truck. There was so much oil on the exhaust it combusted. From there on, I hit every mud hole I could find. Manufactured a plug at the top and made it back down without incident.
