^^what he said, also there are two coolant lines that run from the compressor on the driverside thru the condensor in front of the radiator, thn down the passenger side fenderwell to the firewall....if your having to charge the a/c, then there is a couple joints in these pipes that could be leaking. but the oil pushing thru the crankcase vent into the aircleaner & having to add oil sounds like a headgasket prob. 4 sure...check the coolant for oil....that would be a good indicator of a h.g. problem...

You have serious engine blowby.
Oil getting pushed out of the breather into the air cleaner and draining out in the bottom hole in the housing.
Check the PCV first or replace it with a new exact replacement one.

ok well found the over heating problem by accident was pouring in antifreeze to test for head gasket problem and while pouring it in i noticed it running out and noticed a hose behind the engine that had a crack in it and was letting all the antifreeze go so that problem is fixed no to find out the damn oil problem.

i would check your fuel pump on the side of your motor, the gasket tends to go bad causing oil to look like its being thrown all over your firewall. just make sure the bolts are tight and check for an oil leak around the pump

well i changed the oil and add some lucas in with it it stopped going into the air filter and blowing on the fire wall for about 4 days. Yeah it started again today and i have alittle on my fire wall and dripping some and if thats not bad enough the damn thing started smoking alittle this morning so am i screwed or what. And so its not a honda engine so i have no clue should i just sell the truck or pay someone to fix it and how much is this going to cost me to make her run like day one?
