when i went into third on the freeway and went to accelerate it started blowing black than white smoke, babied all the way back to my garage, popped the hood to find oil all over. There are no holes that I can see right now but clearly oil everywhere. I'll go back and get a jack under it an look in the daylight. I'm thinking cylinder 8 popped as it's notorious.

Dover, if you can get it towed over to Dyno Tune I will look it over and see if anything can be done.

 

Check all the oil feed and return lines. Shifting into third is a really strange time for these motors to blow.

If it was still running, there is hope.

 

it was running all the way to the garage and when i stopped after a good 10 min of driving after that all happened it died. I didnt try restarting it.

 

Hal I'll try and get it towed up there tomorrow or Wednesday.

Yeah I knew something was hurt when I saw the trail of smoke :( Hope it's something small.
