Default ol smokie

I still don't know how to use this site I hope this gets out, first thanks for the reply about air in line but I dont know how to get it out but I can tell you I got a puddle of oil at the end of the tail pipe,it seem to run like a gas motor with a bad plug is this a bad slug or is it unable to fire as a result of oil in cyc or air in ir but it sure smokes?

Default Ol Smokie

Thanks for the warm welcome, Yes it will be a mission of love but not many of these were built or I haven't seen many out this way. When they were new I couldn't afford one now you just can't find em. Still trying to make her run before teardown would like to make it purr first,but again I don't know that much about deisels other than they are missing spark plugs and wires. still smokes still seems to be missing on one cyl but I can't pull a plug wire to determine wich one? any thoughts. and thanks again Jack S:yeah
