Burning oil?
Hey fellas i just got back in town and well the truck is running alright but it's dogging on accel and kinda hesitating/chugging a bit. I've been trying to adjust the carb a li'l bit but nothings really working. I checked my oil and it's down to almost nothing, oddly enough i never noticed any smoke or anythign outa this truck but today i did when i gassed it the nice blue smoke.
The engine was rebuilt like 20k ago but i guess something's up. any thoughts on where to check for oil out of? the underside is clean, the seals aren't leaking either. I thought i might be sucking it up thru the pcv but that doesnt appear the case either unless my heads are getting so hot that the oil is vaporizing which it seems like it actually might be doing. I'm concerned about this but the truck has always ran fine. I guess 3 months off for the truck wasnt a good thing any thoughts on what i should check? i'm broke right now so a rebuild isnt exactly possible at the moment and like i said it was rebuilt recently by the guy i bought it from. Thanks in advance fellas
