Start with a compression test then do a leak down test. Take note if you have air escaping from the crank case. That video doesn't look good. Definitely stop running/driving it until you find the problem. If you have a broken ring land (and I think you do) on even 1 piston it will only get worse.
Blow by (a mixture of oil & air from pressure leaking past the piston rings. Not a slang term for drugs). Lol
Make sure you get a Mopar oil cap. They don't sell the O ring separately.
Definitely see if you are loosing oil by checking it constantly. Sounds like you have blow coming out of the valve cover breathers. Next thing you need to determine is if it's excessive. From what you say it doesn't sound good.
Replace the oil cap seeing they all leak eventually.
Never heard of removing that pin/bolt with an impact. When I was a tech everything would have came to a halt until we made the call. Then it would be up to you choose what to do next.
1. Heat it up and see if that works.
2. Seeing nothing was broken inside put the cover back on with new...
That's a spicy meatball.
It's probably best the old dude only drove it 5 miles. According to the description he was able to get the shit smell out of the drivers seat. He didn't mention how the pants & underwear turned out. Lol
Looks like you guys are not afraid to scrape the bumpers & undercarriage. Especially the Chebby. The front air dam (as in the dam thing got torn off again) looks like it's long gone. Lol
It can happen from any number of reasons.
My vote is for trying to or starting the truck with low battery voltage. Like a bad cell turning your 12 volt into a 10 volt or less battery. The parasitic draw from the radio memory etc. Bad cables or connections. Another thing computers absolutely...
