marmot
On the bench
Took the kids for a cruise in "Harry" our 93 f250. There was a couple tiny drips of oil on the front engine oil pan when we left. On the way back we stopped at the library and there was a gusher... down to the ground flowed a bubblin crude, black gold, texas tea that is. Passenger side of the block front and high. No leaks on the turbo that I could see nothing in the valley pan. I had the crank case vent tube off the air filter at the time. The good news is I now have NO FUEL LEAKS and the truck runs great. We did 65 and it was quiet(for a diesel) and smooth on the highway and a bunch of power blueish smoke on hard acceleration but very light. No oil in coolant or visa versa and no bubbles in the radiator. Is there an oil line in that area? It seems to heavy and too sudden for a head gasket but I have never owned one of these trucks befor. As a lifelong dyslexic I immediately suspected the oil cooler which is of course on the Drivers side. No leaks there! I did a bunch of web and site searching but not much in the way of ideas. Anyone have a guess.
Oh and we were parked next to the snootyest black stretchy pants wearing yuppie in a prius you ever saw...I was laughing with the kids at all the oil drops marking our entrance and how we would be able to follow it home and she snorted audibly and scowled.
