I drove a 97 F350 7.3 for about a year and a half and fell in love with the PowerStroke.
I just bought MY 1st diesel today. 99 F250 SD Crew Cab 7.3l. It only has 86K miles and is really clean. Doesn't appear to ever have a 5th wheel attached.
I was told to check the Blow By by taking the cap off the oil intake under the hood while the engine is running warm.
If I notice a considerable amount of smoke is this a major problem?
I'm new here so go easy on me. I've been reading around the different forums and couldn't find anything definitive.
