[QUOTE="Roccafellas, post: 1545826, member: 28554"] So the engine is finally out, I did it without removing the cab or lifting it, I just simply took the up pipes off, it’s much easier without the egr equipment lol... This engine only has 35,000 on it and look at the oil. It seems as tho the old shop that put the long block together and the bedplate and oil pans on did NOT know where to put silicone.. there is SOOOO MUCH oil on the bedplate and oil pans and also on the rear cover half way down and the front lover cover it’s literally leaking out everywhere.. I wondered if it has a lot of pressure inside and was pushing oil out but my cab is vented to atmosphere with a huge 3/4” hose down the frame with no restrictions.. the cam sensor is also leaking.. could over filling cause this? Any tips on helping stopping oil leaks when I tear it down and put it back together?? I really want more than 7000km before an oil drip..like the first time lol.. has anyone gone 100,000 or more with no leaks.. seepage fine..but at 7000 I actually had a lot of drips on the ground.. I couldn’t park in anyone’s driveway that was paved or lock stone.. and my driveway is horrible.. and lock stone... so first question.. oil leaks.. where do you put silicone, and where else could it leak that I should also silicone! And how do I stop sensors from leaking.. new orings only? And silicone?, can I just buy a universal oring kit and use which ones fit? Or is the material special, also relating to oil drain tubes..??? Dipstick? Etc... and what else could make a bedplate leak that bad.. and front and rear cover.. I’ll be pressure washing it tomorrow..what’s a good way to get all the oil off? Soak in super clean or spray nine and pressure wash? On a side note, I’m pretty scared of how I will maneuver this engine around my driveway and into the other truck.. my lock stone is not even and my cherry picker can’t move half a foot without getting caught. It’s a very heavy engine.. any tips? Or anything anyone could give me?
