Topic: 22r smoking inside cab!!

[bamajojo9]

So I have an 87 pu with a 22 r in it and its smoking into the cab through the little transfer case hole... I do have a front differential leak, could this be that with a lackbof oil, or could it be like an exhaust leak into the truck?

Sounds like some oil burning and or your tranny is getting real hot
You should take a peak with a light around dark smoke can be seen w a light
Good luck

My guess, is that you have a leak, and its burning on your exhaust.  Does it smoke going down the road, sitting still, or both ?

[bamajojo9 [OP]]

Most when driving but sometimes not moving to but not all the time

[OOPS]

Do you have a GOOD boot on the shifters?

[83yota5960]

does it smell like exhaust, if so you got a leak my truck was like that smoky exhaust pored threw the boot, about killed me, had to drive with my head out the window.

I really can't tell.... all I no is that it comes yo from the transfer case hole and worries me that it might be exhaust

[83yota5960]

well if it is from the exuast you would or should be able to hear the leak

[bamajojo9 [OP]]

I no I have a leak at the manifold

[Humboldt County Crawler]

if tail pipe is under truck ex. will come in trk and even worse if windiw is open

[83yota5960]

its probably exuast then cause i have the same thing you do smoke coming in and i have a leak at the manifold to

[bamajojo9 [OP]]

Well I fixed the leak at the manifold and it still does it!! I'm scared to roll the windows up because I'm scared that if it is exhaust then it will kill me. I've never even heard of anything like this happening

[Rocksurfer]

Is there a noticeable oil leak anywhere? Since you fixed the exhaust leak I'd look for even a small one dripping on the pipes.

[OOPS]

Like I asked before, how are the boots on your shifters. That is what boots are designed to do, keep the outside from getting in. If they are ripped or not sealed to the floorboard outside will get into the cab.

[bamajojo9 [OP]]

Yeah good idea.. and no sir my boots are all ripped up bit it has always had an open spot around the top of the transfer case boot
