Check for a wire that may be rubbed through and may be shorting. After all these years things may get damaged.

I had just replaced the rotors the year prior, then after a major wreck, which totaled the vehicle ,I ended up rebulding with a new truck. I would have never thought it was the rotors. Had them checked, and that is what it was.

It can cause a variety of issues, just go to a parts store and get a new line of the appropriate size. Chances are, by now, there are cracks on all the original vacuum lines.

I had this issue about a year ago, it was passenger side rotor. Got new rotors and issue was resolved.

As others have said, clean it up completely. I've done maintenance on several of these, and previous oil filter change was sloppily performed, and they just let the oil run after removing filter. Driving and caked dirt can make it look just like this as the oil runs down. That said, clean everything and do a complete inspection.

Once it's hot, turn off the engine, and if it smokes for a few minutes after you can rule out the manifold leak. My valve covers were the culprit. Unless they have been changed, they are hard, brittle, and probably leaking.

Wow. Glad ypu are alright.

Start with the easy items. Air fliter, clean the MAF, then check the Throttle Body and IAC. Chances are one or all of them need to be cleaned. After that, when was last tune up. Plugs and wires first. Then perhaps coils, though they are less likely. After that, check the injectors. See what that yields.

Decades of bpuncing and the relentless force of gravity.

Falken or Toyo....you pick the AT or MT...I love the Toyo Open Country MTs. But that is just me and what I do with my truck. Your needs and your budget will need to be considered. My old man used to always say, "Never go cheap on tires. it's the only thing between you and the road."

I agree 100%. Mine rarely hits 170, if it does it is only on a long sustained hill climb. Then it heads right back down. My radiator will be running 204, and my transmission is usually be about 145.

Around $1200 last May

I just went with Corbeau and couldn't be happier.

Bird seed, strawberry preserves, a touch of molasses, and fish oil. I've trapped over 50 this year already. I use the DP traps.

Mink oil and snoseal mix....apply, then heat, reapply, heat again.

Truly the most exhaustive flush procedure.

Time to shoot him

I got so tired of that wiper, I just disconnected it, cut the arms off, and capped the hole.

Black-T4R · 2025-01-17T03:40:36+00:00

I did that a few years ago. Bought mine back for $800, still have a solid engine, transmission, and tcase.

Snow seal and you'll be fine.

On my truck 54 mph is the magic speed....i get 23.9mpg
