I believe i have a leak from the torque converter on my 2000 F350. Its a fairly constant but slow leak. Ive attached images.

Now i dont have any rubber stopper in the hole there. should there be one?

Its leaking engine oil so what could be the problem?

Thanks for your help!

 

Engine oil leaking from that area is most likely the rear main crank seal. Generally no stopper in those holes. That’s so water and oil can drain out verses being tossed around by the flywheel/convertor asm.<O</O
On rare occasions oil could be coming off the top of the engine somewhere and wicking down making it appear to originate from that drain hole? Valve cover, intake gasket etc. Always best to degrease and investigate before assuming the worst.<O</O

 

I did spray it underneath with the pressure washer and then let it dry. Was defiantly coming out of there. To check again I put paper towel in the hole to clean it then watched it again. Coming from there. So for the rear main crank seal i have to pull the engine right? This thing is making me broke :/

 

Looks like a front pump seal to me, are you sure it is ATF? Otherwise it usually comes from up on top.

 

Its engine oil that is leaking.

Say if it is the Rear main seal can I leave it alone for now? Its only a small drip just cant park in clients rive ways...

 

Sure but it is rarely the rear main with these. ATF???????

 

ATF is automatic transmission fluid correct? I dont fully understand your question.

Thanks for you help and patients with my lack of knowledge

 

Yes you need to determine what kind of oil it it first.

 

Is your trany low of fluid?

 

Its engine oil (black in color)

Both have gone lower but thats because i have a crack in my transmission lines. Getting those fixed tomorrow then I think it will help determining for 100%

 

That crack may be causing the other also ( just oil spraying around.) Hope so anyway.

 

Yea fingers crossed! Its been one thing after another with this truck

 

Sounds like light at the end of the tunnel.
