Help!!

Bought 94.5 F-250 with 7.3 powerstroke.Seems to run ruff at idle and after 200 mi. ride found oil level up about half inch.Seems to be getting fuel in the oil.Where to start,injectors? Would this much fuel be caused by injector o-rings?
thanks for any help.

From what you describe, injector O-rings sounds like the cause. O-rings can fail in many ways, yours sound like the ring between the fuel and high pressure oil system is leaking. That's something you can repair yourself, and I'd make it a high priority item.

Question..........its seems to me if the leak was between the high pressure oil side and the fuel side that your would have oil in the fuel. Not fuel in the oil. Right, or am I crazy.
