I have a 1992 2.9 5 speed. When i start the truck up it had the usual lifter tick for about 20 seconds but now when it runs even just idling it burns oil. And it will sit there and run fine starts right up everytime. Also when I come to a hill it falls on its face and i get no power. I have stopped driving it now. The amount of oil being burned is nothing I've ever seen before. It will fill the whole cab up (side pipes) and smoke out a road. Any input will help. Another thing is I just had to replace the alternator and fuel pump and this oil problem happened immediately after not sure if that has anything to do with it. But any input will help. Thanks.
