Im guna be out of town for about a week, so ill get you guys the pictures when I can, which I will because im interested to see how bad it actually is, I cleaned as much out of inside of the oil fill hole as I could. I know it is prob pretty nasty because the pcv valve hose was completely plugged up and full of carbon last time I cleaned it it took me forever to clean it out. And today it started sputtering and the check engine light came on, I thought I fixed that...

I can say that it hasnt had the maintenance that it should have, but I have always kept up with the oil changes, but when my dad used to drive it, who knows, he hasnt changed the oil filter in his truck in over 15k miles.
