It runs good no skipping or water out the exhaust, just going in the oil pan.
Hopefully it's just the engine oil cooler as the previous owner let the truck set for six years and when he started to driving it, it was mixing coolant in the oil.
Usually if it's the oil cooler, oil will go into the coolant because oil pressure is higher than the pressure in the cooling system. Is there any oil in the degas bottle?
How are you looking in the radiator? A '96 doesn't have a cap on the radiator, just the one on the bottle. I would pull the drain plug on the oil pan after the truck has sat for a couple days. If there is that much coolant in the oil, it will be the first thing that comes out, followed by the oil.
This one was a little hard to figured out, unfortunately I had to cut a horrible hole on the inside of the fender, since my measurements were all wrong.
So I have all the coolers installed, except the condenser, I'm thinking to take my chances and shave the inside of the grill little by little until I get the condenser in there, use a drimel tool and cut it little by little until it fits.
What would be the major cause for coolant getting into my engine oil ??
It is a 1996 F350 with a 7.3 power stroke with turbo and automatic transmission.
I'm hoping it is the engine oil cooler.
Please HELP !!!!
Due to the age of the truck, I would plan a cooler rebuild anyway, then go from there. Very simple job took me around two hours, I did it when it was nice outside, no rush, etc. Watch some You Tube videos, its easy.
I did my '97 last year, and the o-rings were as hard and brittle as glass, just old.
