Daughter's truck update

Recap: It had a rough idle and you could feel it running rough even up to 1500 or so. May have a little white smoke at startup, but other than that, no smoke whatsoever. I drove it a day or two and could tell that the mileage would be way low. I replaced the OF valve today(broken spring), it smoothed it right out. With the overhead to be run tomorrow or the next day, it should be back to normal operation.

I've been studying your post some. I know we need to do them. I've got a buddy that just bought a 97 one ton that needs his done too. That makes three.
