#2 of 8 Smoking engine by roy45

Jun 10, 2008 (9:04 pm)

-I have a 1992 6.5 that is blowing smoke out through the turbo, like popeye smoking his pipe through the filler tube and it tryto push the dip stick out. the oil is gurgling at the dipstick but does not come out on the engine. the engine is not making any noise other than the normal 6.5 's. I would like a response as to what may be the problem. Thanks

my 6.5 somkes through the turbo and pushes the dip stick up where it gurles oil but does not run out of the tube, and if i remove the filler cap it puffs like popeye's pipe is smoking. There is no strange sound in the enwhen it's running.

#6 of 8 Engine stalling problem by chuck84

Mar 06, 2009 (11:12 am)

I have a 94 Chevy 2500 with a 350 engine throttle body injection. The truck starts fine in AM, drive 4 to 6 miles engine dies, spray starting fluid in air cleaner, engine runs another 4 to 6 miles or if you turn off ignition after driving, engine will crank freely but will not start, spray starting fluid and it starts right away and will run smoothly for awhile, then die again. Changed fuel filter, changed pressure regulator at throttle body, fuel pump was changed about a year ago. Has anyone experienced this or have any ideas what to check next?
