    Burning oil

    Yes, exactly. Already took care of some small leaks, manifold gasket, valley gasket, checked oil pan gasket. Can see and smell it right out of the pipe. It’s really heavy oil smoke on start up.

    Burning oil

    2004 SS with 329,000 miles is my daily driver and work truck! Recently started burning a lot of oil. It also burns a small amount of coolant. I’m engine ignorant but have a good mechanic. I’m guessing head gasket but wondering what else it could be? Oil pan or rings? Thinking the combination of fluid burn leans towards head… Worth doing on an engine this used and with New England salt damage starting to need repair? Thanks! I was really hoping to see 400k!
  3. Yes, got that size and with 7000 mile front/rear rotations and 14,000 mile cross rotations- and 2 alignments per year, I’m getting 50k+ out of them.
  4. Based on reviews here and my own experience I switched to Toyo Proxes ST III for my 275/55/20 ‘04 truck. Getting ready to buy set number 3....but figured I’d check and see if there is a discussion about something even better? I have no complaint with the 3’s like a lot of us did on the 2’s. Just checking to see if there is something tested out there that is even better?! I’m AWD Northern New England rain and snow, year round, 180 miles a day on the days I drive. thanks!
