Hello All,
It's bin a while.....well still working on the truck, my latest problem is weep oil around the bell housing of the TorqShift. My Ford dealer tells me this is normal for diesel?!?! Can anyone tell me if this is true? I'm not a diesel mech. but to me no truck should weep oil. I posted a pic in my album for you view pleasure.
Cheers |

I wouldn't necessarily say it's "normal", per se, more like it's common. Can you see around your turbo housing to see if you can spot a leak?

If its not sopping wet or dripping, Its not likely worth getting excited about.
If your ex has been exposed to some real low temperatures like -40 or below, then you can expect some seepage. Its very light and stops in warmer weather. This happens to shocks too.
I have no seepage at all and mine is a 2000 LTD PSD.

Thanks for the tips guys!, Ford has had the torqshift out and replaced the rear main seal. I really don't want to go back for a second time around. It's not a leaving a pool yet so I'll just leave it and see what happens.
Cheers
