Thank you wanyo! I will make sure to tear the engine first and then choose my sizes for everything.

Let's say the engine is rebuildalble the site where the rebuild kit is for sale asks me for rod bearing size, main bearing size, and bore size should I just choose standard? (The premium overhaul kit seems to have and oil pump)

Will do, maybe I can find a engine on Craigslist....

That's how mine blows smoke only if I could somehow show you a video of the engine running. Before all of this the engine ran perfect i drove it up to 90mph on the highway once now when when it's idling it is all shakey and doesn't seem to settle even when completely warmed up

It was definitely a knock and the truck gets up to operating temperature and it still has a misfire and a bunch of white smoke coming out of the tail pipe and blow by tube. I know it did have a rattle that was associated with the can but that was when i cold started it in the mornings

Yeah I know just wish me some luck I guess hahaha

Mine did absolutely nothing, no light until is started knocking.

My dad's pretty attached to and so i am considering that the truck has been restored will definitely be going the rebuild route. Any good rebuild kits you've seen other than cheap ones from eBay?

Okay thanks ?

? I believe it's air/fuel mixture I'm getting some out of the blow by tube

I'm running antifreeze in my truck and the white smoke smells like fumes like something bad

So I have a 1981 sd22 that was recently ran without oil on accident. The truck was making a knocking noise before I put oil in it. When I put oil in it the knocking went away but now I have a misfire and I'm getting lots of white smoke out of the exhaust. The truck is running rough it's all shakey and doesn't seem to idle right. When I rev it a bit it feels like it has no power and backfires. I think messed a ring up what do you guys think? 1981 Datsun 720 110,000 miles

Thanks for all of the advice i clearly see i can not add turbo to the truck

I have a 1982 nissan datsun pickup diesel sd22 5 speed i am currently in the process of restoring it the truck is being painted right i like the truck and all its just that the truck is to slow it only goes 80 mph and i was wondering if i could put a turbo in it to make it faster and some other preformance parts to make it faster should i do this or can the engine not handle this

I dont know but im thinking of selling because i use it for work and nothing really fits in the back
