I had a chevy 6.5 td for. Truck has 217,000 miles on it Ford 7.3 powerstroke diesels have gotten a bad rap for leaking oil
7.3 PowerStroke e350 - Oil Cooler Leak - Shake,Rattle And Roll! - YouTube
These are the top 7.3 powerstroke common oil leaks … and how to repair them.
I have a 1996 7.3 powerstroke and the oil cooler has been replaced about 10k miles ago
It is not getting oil in the water or water in the oil, i check both daily It is leaking just a small amount of antifreeze out where the oil filter screws up and onto the oil cooler And it is on tight, i. Messy as heck but not that hard (oil and coolant) get a large plastic bucket or similar to catch it.
I have an 02 7.3 4x4 excursion The coolant flows on the tube side of the hx It can definitly leak coolant if the gasket is bad that seals the cooler to the block If the leak is discovered on the passenger side it's probably from the dipstick tube adapter
So i'm almost certain i also have a leak coming from the front part of my oil cooler
No oil in coolant or coolant in oil I'm wondering, are the 7.3 oil coolers reliable enough to just replace the orings on them Or should i replace the cooler while its out
