Woot! not a head gasket

Alright so i posted last time saying i got a new truck was told it was a blown. Well its not! woot. The truck sat for 2 years so was a lil rough. but any ways opened the oil pan plug and let drain for 2 days, after 2 days i checked the oil it was ALL oil. a bit grungy but oil only. So i replaced the oil filter put in some cheap oil (Just using to pretty much rinse out the engine). Let idle for about 10 min then rev'd her up for a nother 5. At first it was puking out the smoke but now, no smoke no wierd ticking noises, and sounds really strong, it does only have 212XXX Km on it =D. So today i am working on chopping off the sides of the box ( rusted almost right out) and will hopefully weld on some new sides next weekend or so =). And then need to make a roll bar replace some bushings and this beast is goin to be gettin close to ready. Gettin excited =D

Have you thought about using SeaFoam to clean the motor and fuel system? Watch a youtube video of the stuff. I think it works...
