In the last 10 000 miles i notice a small oil leak nothing much in the beging. 7 3 powerstroke common oil leaks are especially well known. Ford super duty pickups have become notorious for dripping oil. Okay hopefully your just checking videos out and don t need this info.
Many of the more common oil leaks are the result of poor maintenance and outright neglect over time. I have heard quite a few failured. You can find the kit i used here. One of the work trucks a 2002 f 250 7 3 powerstroke sprang a serious oil leak over a few days time.
I don t have any good news to give you on saving it properly without removing the oi. This kit can be installed in 1 2 hours with basic hand tools. Installation video of my patent pending kit that repairs the leaky dipstick adapter on ford powerstroke 7 3 motors. These are a couple common areas to look at when diagnosing engine oil leaks on a 7 3 powerstroke diesel.
Just kinda of wet on both sides of the oil pan. Well my oil pan is leaking 1997 f350. However just as many 7 3 oil leaks are due to inherent manufacturer design and component choices. I was browsing the internet trying to get some information on the easiest way to go about fixing the leak and came across this 2 piece oil pan.
Well it has gradually gotton worse now everytime i park.
