My truck smoke's when hot,the first time I change the oil with new filter and clean the
valve cover and replace the front oxy/sensor and added and oil adjecgive call Barrcode I think but it was made to handle some of the smoking. It did for about one month but then it started again, so I repeated the oil change with the exception of the
front oxy/sensor. brother way the color of the smoke is "White" . And the smell of this
is like old burn oil. The truck use to belong to my step daugther could this smell mean's nelect of oil change's? Thank You

9 out of 10 times white smoke indicates a head/valve stems type problem. Blue smoke indicates oil leak/burning. Try using a product sold at NAPA called MOA by the BG44 product line. Put it in the oil, drive 100 miles, it will clean out the oil/engine. Change the oil. Id try to use pennziol if you can. C how it does. If it still smokes white, check your radiator for a grey sticky substance, or antifreeze in the oil. If you have that, u have a head problem.
