My 1985 Toyota Pick-Up has been sounding like a lawn mower the last couple of days and feeling like it might stall. This morning, white exhaust started coming out from the tail pipe and when I got it home it was leaking what looked like water and oil, but not 100% on that. It was coming from the bottom of the engine.

It was my Father In-Laws truck that he gave me when he passed, so it's got some emotional attachment, but it's also 23 years old. I would like to fix it, but would like to know what it could be before I do so.

Thanks.

A think you have a blown head gasket. Stop driving it and check the oil on stick is it milky looking also pull oil fill cap off lt.brown stuff there? if yes you have a blown gasket and possible cylinder head problems.
Good luck
