Head gasket time...

Earlier I had it running it was at normal temp idling for over an hour and it had white smoke. Now its at operating temp with no white smoke... whats going on??

Pull the glows, pressurize it and pull the head. Speculation is useless at this point. GM Tabs are not going to get you outta this one..
 
FWIW, dont leave the dip stick out and let the truck "warm up" and walk away and forget it for an hour :eek: Oil/antifreeze blew out and COVERED the underside of the hood with it open, and every single thing under the hood. Opps
 
Justin it shouldn't take you an hour to drink a beer.:slap: I got a guy here that has a 6.5 4wd crew 4x4 that he says needs head gaskets. It has been parked for 2 years, I believe he said around 140 on the clock. I know it better than what you got (engine wise) but I could see what he wants for it if you want a crew to wrench on. Seriously I might be able to get it sorta cheap $2k maybe.
