hpop Draining

Geday f truck Brains Trust.
I come to you from Australia with a question as you are the f truck capital of the world and we had a measly 9000 ford import f trucks. After stolen, wrecked etc there are not many left and even less people who want to know about them, so help is far and wide

I have a 2003 f250 7.3 and it stopped dead on the freeway after the CEL flashed a few times. Had it towed home and started looking around and found HPOP Reservoir was drained. I filled it up but it soon drained again. the oil is draining back to the sump as the oil level on the dipstick keeps rising as I top up the reservoir. The obvious question is is there a simple solution or could this be multiple things causing this problem.
Any help much appreciated before I start to look at this a bit more serious

regards Grant

I would go ask this question over in the 7.3 forum. You might get an answer or can search for an answer...

Yes, check in the 7.3 forum. I have always wondered when you change oil is there a couple liters of oil left in the HPOP. This maybe related.
