leaking oil

[BOL]

So when I park my truck it drips oil. Not from the drain plug but I don't have a clue from wher. Any ideas?

My idea is you have an oil leak and you expect someone else to crawl under your truck and tell you where it is leaking! Crawl your ass under there and look closely to see where the leak is. Then get back here with that information and someone will give advice as to how to repair the leak.
HINT... the leak will usually be at the highest place on the engine that is wet with oil.

hmm... Good thinking

Like Jim said...get yourself a nice flashlight and start looking from the top of the engine down on both sides. We aren't magical people who can tell you where your oil leak is.

My 93 4L leaked slightly from the oil pan gasket, up next to the starter. I used dye in the oil to track it down. At first I suspected valve cover gaskets, but went the easy way with a dye test.
