Default Re: 49 Ford White Smoke Oil Filler Tube

To JayChicago , there's definitely enough smoke coming out of the filler tube to discern that it's white. Thanks for the detailed info Flathead Fever and tcom; I just checked the tube and no white gunk. The dipstick oil looked like it should. Getting late here on the Left Coast, but I'll move onto plans B, C, D, etc tomorrow. In fact, it does misfire just a tad when first started, but once warmed up it runs fine. I should have noted that the car runs fine and I had it up to 65 mph the other day with no issues, though I generally prefer not to drive it that fast. One strong issue is that the smoke is entering the cabin and any long drive definitely involves opening windows.
