Message: [QUOTE="TARM, post: 293355, member: 578"] First thing check the valley and see if you have oil pooled up there and how far tot eh front it is. All oil that goes to the valley ends up going down the back of the engine. Looks like a rear seal leak to those that do not have experience with 7.3s. The possiblities for oil leak there: HPOP rear seal (snap ring), IPR seal, ICP, HPOP front gasket Turbo mount or fittings, EBPV system THe fact that it seems the most oil is when you get on the engine hard I am thinking maybe HPOP as if it was the turbo or EBPV you would see it regardless. That is just a guess it could still be any of them. THe front is easier to check anyways and work on. First thing clean up the valley really good then see if you can see the leak is coming from. A mirror helps to look under the hpop. As was stated the very first thing along with fixing the leak is to get ALL fluids changed flushed and filters replaced. That is ALL fluids. engine oil PW steering Trans Brake system Coolant Fuel filter both axle difs check and grease all the joints Unit bearings check and grease [/QUOTE]
