welcome to the forum buddy. sounds like your mill might be running a bit rich. when you tune/lean up the motor, you will notice a bit less smoke & oil, but you always want to see a smoke trail & will always get some unburnt fuel.

there are tuning videos on here we can link you to which are helpful.

also, the truck "not staying running" could also be a result of the motor being tuned too rich.
 
welcome to the forum my friend,and i have to 100% agree with the statement above,"GET RID OF THE SUPER CHARGER" they act almost like you have a air leak and are extremely hard on your engine..running a super charger shortens the life of your engine big time and you will be looking for that "sweet" tune forever!! take the super charger off reset needles to factory specs and start again!! :hpisf:
