Hey everyone, thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.
I have a 1990 v6 4x4 with a ton of miles, but it's run like a champ for the 4-5 years I've owned it. On my way home from work today I started to notice a funny smell, and then I lost a lot of power and smoke started pouring out from under the truck as I drove. I pulled over and turned it off, opened the hood, and there was oil pretty much everywhere. I could hear air rushing out of somewhere, under closer inspection, there is a small hose that has a hole in it .. but I can't tell if that is the cause of this or a result. Please let me know if you would need any more details to diagnose this problem, I really need my truck and as you can probably tell .. I'm no mechanic!
Fingers crossed that it's something simple and hopefully cheap!
