As the title states I've got an oil leak immediately after having an engine rebuilt at the dealer and I am 100% againts taking it back there. Long story...
Anyway, I noticed it dripping a considerable amount from the right rear of the engine when sitting and idling and after a few days its scattered down the underside of the drivetrain from driving down the interstate. I cleaned it up and started it and watched. Its coming from the rear of the cylinder head between the rockerbox and head. Just pulsing slightly and not pushing a lot but its still leaking.
These were probably replaced when I had the motor built because I bought the entire engine gasket set from ford. What are my options now? Do I have to pull the head to replace this gasket? The diagram on Alldata shows the studs go throught the rockerbox at least on the lower side of the head so that means Id have to pull those nuts off the studs at the very least.....
I hate this truck.
