Full disclosure on engine condition:

I bought this Ram 3500 sight unseen from a dealer in TX who claimed it had zero blowby and no exhaust smoke and when it arrived it had considerable blowby and smoked like a locomotive. We tried all the easy (but not cheap) fixes such as brand new Bosch injectors and 6.7 fuel feed tubes ($3200), a brand new turbocharger ($1500) and brand new intercooler and tubing ($750). None of it made any difference in the smoke level, though it does run smoother.


While the truck starts instantly in any weather and runs/drives fine the excess smoke makes it impractical to drive any distance. Could be worn or dropped valve stems/seals, bad head gasket, worn/cracked rings or holed piston in one or more cylinders, impossible to diagnose exactly without at least pulling the head. Fix could be as simple as replacing head gasket, rebuilding head or doing an in-frame re-ring, or as complex as a complete long block remanufacture. It has good oil pressure and runs at normal temps. 


I've put enough money in the truck to not want to go any further and am ready to move on. It's a hard to find crew cab longbed in otherwise great condition and was my dream truck;  especially if you can dig into it yourself it will be a bargain!
