Re: Smoking Problem
Its unlikely for the intake to suck that much oil from the lifter valley. It would be a huge vacuum leak and the truck would run terrible. Lots of fuel dumped into the engine is bad. It tends to wash down the cylinders and cause problems with the rings sealing. A few miles of dumping fuel I wouldnt see doing catastrophic damage so long as it was resolved quickly and the oil changed. I would be worried about cylinder washdown causing your problem though due to the fuel. Its the most likely possibility given the circumstances.
