That's not sounding good. How much pressure behind the blowby? If you flip the oil cap upside down on the fill tube, enough to pop it in the air?

 

yes, pops it up immediately. I even put my hand over it and there is serious pressure puffing smoke 12 inches out of the filler too

 

Sounds like a dead hole. A compression check would tell you for sure, but I'd say a rebuild/reman/junkyard motor are in his near future.

The amount of missing bolts is scary. Time to check everything else on the truck before something else breaks. Having a few bolts left over when working on cars was tolerable up until about the 70's models. After that, you're just asking for trouble, and apparently he's found it.

 

roger that

Just thought I would say hi to everyone! I got rid of my 07 F150 a year ago and this past weekend picked up my second Ford! She is a little older and I am just getting to know her but my '50 F1 sure turns some heads!

I am in the Plano area and hope to see some of you around... if you see my copper ride on the road, wave me down, would love to meet some fellow Ford enthusiasts!

 

Ft. Worth area here! I've got a 7.3 psd that wants to get it out and play...
