Truck over heated, now burning oil?
 

I have a turbo 4.8. My water temp gauge failed about a week ago and i havent driven it. Well my dailys battery died and i took the truck to work. On the way home right ny my driveway, the end tank of the radiator cracked (go figure). I shut it down immediately and figured it must have over heated.

I replaced thr failed thermostat and radiator. Now i have white smoke coming out of the vent filter on the pcv tube and it smells like oil.

Do i have excessive blow by? What do you think happened?

do a compression test and leak down and see if it checks out. any coolant in the oil?

No coolant leaking over, no smoke out of tail pipe. But i also only drove the truck for 8 miles after i smelled the oil.
