Re: 250 inline 6 mystery oil leak
It could be leaking at the fuel pump or mounting gasket. Possibly the gasket under the dist. Check your crankcase ventilation system. You need a good PCV valve & a vented oil cap or tube from valve cover to the air cleaner.

Re: 250 inline 6 mystery oil leak
Thanks for the welcome and for the help guys. I didn't think about the fuel pump gasket. I'll definitely check that one out.

A clogged or non-existent PCV system will push oil out from every gasket...

Re: 250 inline 6 mystery oil leak
Figured it out, the breather hose from the valve cover to air cleaner was plugged.
Thanks for the help guys! |
