GMT 400 obsessed Swede.
So I got the engine back together on my C1500 and it seems to be running pretty good eventhough it has set a P1345. I set the distributor to the best of my ability and followed the post linked in this forum on how to set it. Despite that, it seems to be close enough to run properly until I can take it to my local shop.
That's not what I'm concerned about. There is still a lot of white smoke coming out the exhaust and I'm not sure if is residual coolant left in the exhuast from the head gasket blew a few weeks ago, or if coolant is some how getting into the exhuast. I was letting it run for nearly 20 minutes and the thermostat was barely starting to open vs a few weeks ago where it quickly hit 260 after a couple of minutes.
I should have checked the oil for coolant contamination(I did change the oil before starting) but I'm at work now, so that will have to wait till tomorrow.
Any ideas what's going on?
