What is component in picture with plug going in top Trying to isolate the source of an oil leak from the front of my 6.0 This seems source of oil
6.0 Powerstroke Oil Leak On Top Of Engine
I will power wash and get better picture.
Most of the threads i've read about oil leaking around the intercooler boots are solved by the ccv but i haven't seen much talking about oil leaking at the intake manifold
It appears oil has been spraying on top of my engine The egr valve, oil filter cap, fuel filter cap, and even the hood have oil residue on them. It has a leak on top of the engine I first thought it was just the blue cac tube coming from the turbo, because it had oil on it it and appeared to collect on the bottom of it and fall onto the engine
I cleaned it up, tightened it and waited The leak is still there Unfortunately i didn't dye the oil before i took it apart Lost at least 2 quarts rather quick, smoke around turbo due to oil at up pipe/exhaust
From underneath oil observed above heads and.
Either that, of the top cover itself is porous or cracked, causing oil to migrate rearward and downward to the bottom of the engine Looking at the first picture again, i'm not able to determine if the oil filter cap is an original or one of those garbage aftermarket caps that are part of the filter. Have an 07 f250 6.0 that recently stared leaking suddenly Went from leak free to leaking decent sized spots within a month
Has oil on top of the engine valley cant cant tell from where I replaced the turbo drain seal, the oil pressure sensor but it did not fix the issue and i could not identify where it was leaking from Couple years ago i replaced the injectors so the valve cover gaskets. They have pressured washed the engine and added dye to the engine oil
The oil leak started at 1500 miles and i now have only 9500 miles on this truck in 2 1/2.
The oil is stored in a reservoir, normally referred to as the oil pan, which is located on the bottom of the engine Are you talking about a leak at the oil filter on top of the engine, at the actual filler cap, or the oil pan? Easiest way to find an oik leak like that is to soak the engine in degreaser for about 15 minutes, rinse with a hose Let the truck idle until you find where its leaking from.
