After changing old dirty oil and adding a pint of
Marvel Mystery, the first start start up produced
copious amounts of gray colored smoke.
Several starts , same smoke for about 15 to 20 minutes,
and dialing in timing and carb adjust, it settled down to
small amount of more blue smoke. Burning oil right ?
None at idle, only when RPMs increased.
I read here about cleaning "oil bypass valve"
How is that done ?
I'm new to slants

Service the oil pressure relief valve to make sure it's doing its job, as described in these two threads: thread 1, thread 2.

Engine cleanout info here.

You'll want to get the three books described in this thread as quickly as you can.

Too many people who were born on third base actually believe they've hit a triple.

OK I did find some of those posts after I wrote
my question.I know should have done the search
first, but then would not have had your reply.
That is my next plan to buy a manual specific
to the slant six.
By the way mine is a 1964 D100 pickup with a 225/6
and 3 speed manual trans.
