    Valve stem seals are the #1 reason why these trucks will burn oil at start up. If the smoking slowly stops after a cold start up, you can be sure it's valve seals. If it's all the time, it could be a valve guide has slipped out of place. Rings are the last thing to suspect.

    Valve seals can be replaced without removing the head.

    Your tests will indicate what the problem is.
    The greatest gift you have to give to the world is that of your own self~transformation.
