Oil Based Smoke
Blown head gasket on 2002 Ford F150?
I have a problem with my 2002 Ford F150 (6 cylinder). One day, the engine started very rough and remained so for a few minutes until cruise speed. The next 2 weeks – no problems. Then, the problem reoccurred along w/ the Check Engine light. I took it to my mechanic - diagnose … misfire on cylinder #6. They replaced the coil pack. The Check Engine light remained off for a day or two and then came back on. He replaced the cylinder sensor. Same deal - - light was off for a day or two and the truck ran okay but then the light came back on. I watched as he hooked it up to the computer - - misfire on cylinder #6 while the engine was off. However, upon starting the engine the computer showed a normal reading. The compression test they ran found no issues. I took it to the Ford dealership. Diagnosis = blown head gasket (based on tests they ran and sign of moisture on the tip of cylinder #6’s plug). Note: I have no losses in power, oil, or signs of white smoke. Any ideas?
look at your oil,see if it is milky or chocolate colored.look for signs of water in it,if not i bet its not the head gasket.

Oil Based Smoke Machine in Road Tunnel Test 2
I put 2 ounces of SeaFoam in my Engine, thats under the recommended amount, should i change my oil Anyway?
I noticed i had Clean oil, and the SeaFoam says "Putone and a half ounces for every Quart if the oil is clean to recondition Seals." So i put in 2 ounces, because i read a VERY Informative WebSite - http://yotatech.com/f105/sea-foam-do-you-want-truth-160613/ - and it says it is "100% Petropleum based" and does NOT "Eat Gaskets."
I was wondering the Opinion of it is is in there for 30 miles or more (I drove 30 miles since SeaFoaming my car, almost NO Smoke from Carbon but its running GREAT, my car was CLEAN i LOVE IT!) would be Harmful, and why.. OR if you were gonna get the Oil changed in 200 miles ANYWAY, what would YOU do?
What would YOu do?
When you put seafoam in your oil, you will not get the white smoke effect. It will only do that if you put it into a vacuum line that feeds all the cylinders. Being that it is a petrol based product, it weakens the viscosity of the oil. It is good to run it for a few miles before an oil change but no longer than that.
