Head gaskets and studs were done with paperwork about a year and a month to the date, just got out of warranty. I ran a block tester for head gaskets maybe 2 months ago and tested perfect no chnage in fluid color not even in the first chamber (my tester is a dual chamber uview) and this has been going on for a good while now it just got worse do where I have a solid drop when I park, anywhere else I should check for coolant or you think the gaskets could still be a possibility after block test and then being done recently? Thank you for the response I just have ran out of options im lost lol
Lower pan has a seep I’m sure lol, I had credits at a dealer for oil changes in my car prior to my truck, took it there for an oil change just to use em and they said oil pan was leaking (just lube techs so I didn’t think much on it) it just got worse tho after almost 3 years of owning the truck, oil changes every 3k religiously so I never noticed level down ever but just wanna figure it out because it’s not going to get better can only go downhill if I leave it. How can I get at upper pan inspection and such? The way it’s in the bottom of bell housing outside makes me think it’s a line or somethin dripping down. I’m a newish diesel tech at a Ford dealer I don’t mind tearing it apart I just have no clue what to do the leak is nowhere obvious- my first thought was rear main seal aswell lol but torque converter and flywheel dry as a bone even after a HARD drive
no sir- I thought of that aswell and decided to just throw lines at it at around 5 months ago, fleece performance lines haven't had drop since. I've heard of it being oil pump, turbo feed line, couple of my buddies say trans pump seal ( I don't think its trans fluid but I figured id look into everything at this point), maybe oil cooler? How would I go about checking all these? any of em sound reasonable to you?
Block off plate, are you referring to EGR? Im sorry im just not 100% sure on what you're referring to, do you have pics by chance of location/ what im looking for. Appreciate your help bro
Where do I look for those, do have to take off turbo heat shield? and where do they feed to?
No. Do a search. Obviously this is your first diesel and you have no mechanical abilities. You need to be spoon fed the answers. Just take the truck to a mechanic and pay someone to fix it. It’s beyond your abilities.
thank you lmao, was just looking for a diagram
hit that nail right on the head, just wasn't sure what was being referred to as when I did a search all that came up was a blocker plate for egr. thanks for info you did give tho
