Is your truck constantly smoking or just on start up? Mine blows white smoke when I start it cold but it goes away in a few minutes. Not sure whats causing it, so consider this post a long-winded bump.

ok this afternoon got a chance to check the choke its not stuck closed so thats good. Sprayed a butload of carb cleaner down the carb is a little better on smell but smoking more now. Pulled the plugs number 1,2,and 3 were black with soot and number four had a little oil on it which i believe is running in the plug hole due to a leaky valve cover that will get replaced this weekend havent got to check the timming yet gotta borrow a timming light from a friend.
