Or until I crank it the next morning. __________________ 1993 Ford F-250 Diesel 7.3L IDI, E40D Auto, 4x4, Super cab Long bed.

You probably have oil getting into the cylinders through the valve guides. __________________ 1985 International rollback, 6.9L 5 speed "Li'l Big Truck" ASE Master Certified, Medium & Heavy Trucks
