HPOP LEAK

Well I fixed the ebpv oil leak but now my hpop is leaking. I verified it for sure, I can see oil at the plug on rear of it. Would I be smart to install the T500, I plan on bigger injectors and chip in future. Any advice is appriciated. Thanks Chad!

If oil is coming out of the plug on The back you can change the oring

A T500 couldn't hurt

Ok well the hpop has 275,000 on as far as I know. How much is the t500 going for now? I will look into a super duty hpop tomorow, I have read they are an improvement over stock.

If your truck is a '96 or '97 you can swap a SD HPOP right on, if it's a 94.5 or 95 you need a special HPOP.

I'd go with a T500 if you are planning on injectors and other upgrades in the future. You can get it from Riffraff Diesel for a good price.

Chad, simple fix. Remove the 11/16" plug and replace the O ring with a Viton #6 O ring.

I had to fix it so the op wouldn't think that maybe it would mess with his canooter valve or throw the exhaust bearing out of balance
