Ford 302 oil problems? 5L/302 reputation is generally good- 1 problem maybe for you- rear main seal was a Oring type same as 140 4cyl, old VW beetle. This was known to wear and leak/weep oil over time. If your burning oil you should see white smoke at tailpipe unless cat is burning it. Do you see a small puddle of oil where the truck is parked? check under engine, oil drip will be small at park as oil would weep when running mostly. Valve guide wear and valve seal also known, not really bad rep- just that short guides and high temperature operation for pollution control reasons caus more wear than original design use of engine in late 60s. Small block Chevy has some minor problems also known- Ford thinwall cast V block has theirs quirks. Over 100,000 miles some things need attention on most engines. RN.
