Oil Leak!!

[whatabudro]

Sorry, not trying to hijack, but what is the part number for the "improved" ebpv kit from ford? I have searched but can not find. Thanks

The only number I have is from joats list:

Exhaust BackPressure Valve Actuator Seal Repair Kit
(Ford) 2C3Z-9P466-BA (94.5-97)
(Ford) 2C3Z-9P466-AA (98-02)

I just went down and asked for the seal and it is what they gave me.

Thanks
So if I am reading that correctly, if I take it to Ford they're going to say "we gotta pull the motor to fix that leak"

Yes you are correct they will tell you that the pan has to be removed and to remove the pan you have to pull the engine. Some guys have had luck just cleaning up around the nut and laying on a thick coating of silicone. Others have been able to remove the nut by running a heavy wire in through the tube hole to keep the internal parts from falling in the pan, keep in mind if you slip and drop something in there you will be pulling the pan for retrieval.

Well heck in that case while it is in there have him add some injectors too

Check the high press. oil pump lines at the top of the engine. If it leaks it will run down the back of the engine and it looks like a rear main leak. Just sent out an F-450 from the shop here with a pump leak.
