I would appreciate if anyone can help me with my Luvs' problem. Since I bought this truck it has ran strong and smooth, but at every stop it puffs a huge cloud of smoke after I take off. It has high compression on all 4 cylinders. It has an Isuzu motor, I have done much mechanic work in my time. I had never seen a line run from an oil pan to the carburetor before. So I think it sucks oil directly into the intake manifold. Well, any ideas? :esad

UP IN SMOKE
Thanks
Richard

sounds like the vapor line check valve is stuck. that line is just for sucking oil crankcase vapors into the carb
