MASSIVE oil leak

[m816]

Sounds like the small lube line from the engine to the IP let go. Its difficult to see and harder to replace. I has lots of pressure behind it and it will empty your oil res fast

My boy, 6 y/o, likes to help me work on the deuce. Child labor is a good thing.

Perfect!

yea, thats what it was.

Everyones correct, its not the easiest line to get to ( engine side ). the body of my truck has been lifted several inches, so acess between the fenders is alot better than most.

update... had the lines made, and the crimps are to long to make the turn into the fitting in the block. Gonna try 1 more place here local. Anyone know of a source for these? ( just in case). Also thought about removing the fitting in the block and changing it to a 90* instead of a 45*.

Use push lok fittings. They are easy to use, I have been slowly replacing all of my hoses to them.
