My 5.9 '07 is leaking oil after I drive it. Usually a spot the size of a quarter or 50ct. Every time weather I drive it 50 or 80mph it's the same.
Same truck if I hook up my gooseneck 18' with a horse in it sprays oil all over the front of the trailer and underside of my truck. I unhook and I goes back to dripping not spraying. So underload it looses alot of oil.
I check for blow by with oil filler cap there is none to speak of. So I said it must be CCV clogged. I cleaned it well and no difference. Then my turbo started to make a racket. I thought maybe there is pressure from turbo slack going into crankcase under load. I put new one on and same leaks, no improvements .
Truck runs great, idles 750, holds 50lbs. oil pressure ,engine has 190,000 miles, no blow by. scratching my head??
Could I have an injector leaking pressure by ? Injectors are stock Bosch with 110,000 Miles on them.
Should I do a leak down test? Any ideas?
Oil leak from either rear oil pan or rear main im guessing.
It also feels like it doesn't have the power it had.
