All the sudden burning alot of oil???

[darnie1987]

Trucks running great but the other day I was driving and the low level warning came on. I've never had the warning come on in 4 years? The truck has been smoking alot more too.(the like a white cloud every start up) I got a retune and the truck didn't run as well so I put in my old tuneI and cut / dumped my ext right after the muffler and that's the only difference. I'm just worried sumthin could be wrong like the rings ect.. I'm gunna run a compression test but any other ideas? Thanks for the help guys.

Valve seals?

Yep you likely fubar'd the valve seals when you did the springs

how do i check em? i dont notice any oil on the heads or motor?

[darnie1987]

also i did the cam like 6000 miles ago and i rly started to notice the smoke more when i installed my new tune? i did chop the ehaust but i never noticed it at all till after that?

[darnie1987]

checked the truck for blow -by and had none? did a oil change 2 days ago and topped off the cooliant. cooliant level is alittle low, and oil smells like its got some fuel in it maybe?

The new tune will not cause an oil burning issue.

Valve seals. Mine has one bad seal and thats how I found mine. Low oil level light came on. Change all of your plugs. I bet you have some oil build up on one of them.

kk ill check it out.... i need to do new springs soon so ill try and get new seals. new head bolts and gaskets. my roomie thinks it could be the head gasket cuz we reused the head bolts and also maybe a leaky injector?

[Frenchy]

Yeah it's likely that leaky injector
