Thnx for reading my thread fellas. I'm sure this will put your mind to work alittle...
So I bought this truck 2002 4x4 built Auto AFe cold air, Edge comp, stock turbo & inj.... with bad no. 6 cylinder. Local shop pulled the motor and replaced piston, rings, rod, bearings.. etc only on the 6 cylinder all others looked real good.... Now truck smokes alot at idle.. and I have weird sound coming from the intake. I put 1200 miles on it and truck runs real well. Changed oil and filters yesterday and found out it consumed over 1.5 gallons of oil since only about a gallon drained out. Is that normal for a break in of one cylinder ( the hone did need a course hone from what in was told).?? I do check oil frequently but it obviously snook up onme. We have gone over valve clearances few times and they are good. I dsconnected the Edge comp box and still smokes. I'm co concerned about the oil consumption and the sucking air sound thru intake.
Things I noticed :
17mpg at 65mph w/ edge maxed
No. 1 injector leaves wet spot ontop of head under injector line near cover
No smoke while going down the road.
Drove from LA, Ca to Wyoming with no issues today ... runs real well idles smooth
I know I'm missing some Info but I will stop running my mouth for a bit. Hope I get some good feedback .... Thx fellas
