Discovered a weird oil leak on the pass side of engine. Realized that the oil fill extension pipe was loose and the oil ran to the low spot at back of valve cover. But, the oil didn't stop leaking-- most of the valve cover bolts on the bottom (next to the hvac plenum where theres tons of room) were loose.

Ive not had to pull the valve covers on a PSD for at least 5 years, and have never had the covers off this truck since owning it (2 yrs now). Have already discovered that working on this one will be more of a PIA than the OBS. Ive become a big pussy.. LOL

Got pissed off at it. Locked the shop up and walked away.

That cap didn't come with a motorcraft filter. If it did, you need to find a new shop.

What's the turbo? Looks like KC...

You're right that's not the oil filter cap I put on. I should've paid better attention to it. Thanks for pointing it out.

How are you liking it? I have his 1.5....love the thing.
Almost went with stage 2, but decided on the latter since I tow most of the time....and didn't want the over the top whistle either.

I haven't gotten to drive it or anything yet. They put it in to hear it and everything while waiting for my new injectors to come in. Going with 190/30
The whistle is loud and I tow a 33ft fifth wheel from job to job.

Yes, tried the jumper... Disconnected batteries, touched cables together, left disconnected about 10-15 min...
