    I have a 99 7.3 Powerstroke for about 4 months now.

    I noticed just a small oil drip to the rear of the motor about a month ago, thought nothing of it with being a diesel. I now how two large drips which are now leaveing puddles of oil and having to add oil every two weeks or so.

    I attempted to trace the aource of the oil leak coming up empty handed with oil to the front and rear of the valley.

    Doea anyone have an idea of what might be leaking. The oil seems to be running from above down the rear of the motor over the oil filter and down as well as between the trans and rear of the motor. Like I said I have oil in both the front and rear of the valley. No oil on valve covera once so ever.

    Ive read many forus on what it coild be id just like to throw it oit there to see if maybe someone has a better idea of whwre to start before I go ripping it apart tomorrow to chexk the Hpop, turbo pedestal and so on.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks in advanve
