2000 7.3 oil leaking out exhaust

Nasty7.3 · Jul 11, 2012

The truck was leaking oil out exhaust there was no blow by and no oil in fuel. I went ahead a replaced the turbo and again oil is coming out of exhaust side of the turbo

pull the turbo and see which side of the up-pipes the oil is coming from. Pull that valve cover and check the inj's bet you have a inj clamp bolt broken or a bad oring.

I agree,

that will tell you where to look for the issue.

Do you have an aftermarket or home made Crank Case Vent?

Yea you got a blown out copper. Look for the loose injector

Hopefully you find this and it didnt bend a rod

I love the pic of the trailing oil spill LOL That is classic.

I am amazed your bottom o-ring looks so good. You much have caught it quickly but then oil pouring out of your tail pipe is sort of hard to ignore.

That ambulance was driven to us like that... The stains are STILL in our concrete.. That was 4 months ago... It was one of our pump guys fault though, very inexperienced and didnt install the injector correctly.. When dealing with ****ty Dipaco injectors, you HAVE to put dielectric grease on the copper since there clearances SUCK and the copper falls off when pushing injector in... Hence why its all fubar....

He was so embarrassed..

Oh, and dont mind the crushed coolant bottle, someone threw it under while I was driving in... scared the **** outta me...
