Cold start 1982 Chevy C30 truck after carburetor rebuild -350ci V8-

[1978mtb]

typical small block chevy valve seal leak not a big problem and easy fix if you have time to do it! My 350 in my 90 scottsdale puffed like that up until the time I traded it in and it only had just over 100,000 on it but I remember when vavoline max life first came out and I used that when I changed the oil and it didn't seem to puff as much on start up.

sorta underwhelming. i mean not even a couple revvs?

You should replace your Oil Control rings. I have leaky valve covers as well, all in all Nice truck my friend.

yo man i did sell that pontiac but i regret it lol trying to put money into my 78 caddy

Its not hard to change valve seals, all you need is a set of tools and an air hose to spark plug fitting, use compressed air to hold the valves closed while you remove the springs and retainers, then you just replace the seals and reassemble.

Is it for sale?

Gotta love a good ole chevy truck!!!....but yea it does kinda look like its burning a little oil. Either that, or, its running just a touch too rich possibly..

[digitalrailroader]

Now, get that Dooley Bed on it, and make us proud!

[76hotrodF250]

That is one sweet chevy, I want to see that dually bed on it!!

I bet that letter yall got was a fake one, like you said in that one vid, long live Tractor Land!!!!

[GearHead1625]

looks like she burns a little oil lol

[LynolsOffice]

Leaky valve seals. When it warms up it goes away. It's nothing compared to the '85 Chevy Dave has!

[CSAKvids]

I'd like to see that thing with the bed you got for it on!

[Roushfan5]

Blue smoke though, that isn't good.

[LynolsOffice]

Yeah it's got the same problem as the other Chevy we have. Common on the old SBC's. The valve seals leak when the truck sits, so when you go to start it after it's been sitting, the oil from the valve cover area leaks down into the combustion chamber. Once the oil burns off the truck runs clean. You should see the '85 Chevy truck, that thing makes a giant cloud when it starts after sitting.

[Roushfan5]

We had a GMC Safari that burned oil on start up. I think it was an late 80's.

[BlakeMason2]

I'm glad to see you kept the truck.

[LynolsOffice]

lol... we found a place to put 26 of them, so hopefully we should be good!

[IDIDieselJohn]

Good ole Chevy!! :D

[stevensj13]

How the whole tractorland fight coming? I wish I had a place for you guys to keep your mowers

[LynolsOffice]

So far we've heard nothing from the town. We will just have to wait and see.
