Or he doesnt fix things, judging by his amswer.

200k mile gm 6L gasser=no oil leaks

Any diesel over 200k=massive oil leaks

My 7.3(2k) didnt leak engine oil until I was at 235k, switched to synthetic, and put injectors(175/80s in it. My 07 dmax @170k+ didnt. My 11 leaked at 18k(oh, thats normal seepage-gm service tech). Then it started leaking coolant, def, and tranny fluid. My 12 has been leaking coolant since it was new, in miniscule quantities. Leaks oil on the passenger side of the motor. ***k it, rolled 90k today, she'll be gone by spring.

i used clean buckets to drain the pan and just refilled with the same fluid.

 

[O2ShootTheJ]

i think my fluid is old/nasty so gonna change it. I'll just guesstimate

 

[O2ShootTheJ]

My oil leak is coming from near the drivers side manifold. It's real wet under there

 

[Powerstroked162]

Dan, 19 quarts sticks in my head

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

would have to be coming from above that. maybe valve cover gasket or glow plug harness.
