my smokin 82
Hey Folks, New here, and new to my Toyota as well. It's an 82 sb 4x4, The problem I am having is trying to determine why, when and only when I go forward up moderate to heavy inclines it smokes like a chimmney, when I level back out it stops fairly quickly. Things to look for is what I am inquiring about. other than that it seems to run great, Thanks in advance

but I will keep that in mind |
Make sure none of the oil drain back holes in the head are plugged, oil cool pool in the head and possibly run down the valve stem when on a hill ?. Its just a guess, but its the only thing i could think of.

I kinda dont think so yoder, I have hit it pretty hard on pavement, no smoke,I mean it is like someone is pouring oil right in the exhaust manifold, thick thick smoke, when I am going up these hills, I am just kinda idling, (out hunting) not at all gettin with it.
but I will keep that in mind |

The most I have ever done is just general clean-up, grinding the casting smooth (well, smoother anyway), deburring of the return holes.
Just making the path easier has always done the trick. I have never groved the peaks off though. |
well thanx anyhow
