Went to change the oil and... $#&%@*
Crawled under the truck to drain the oil, and I noticed oil seeping from the weep hole on the flywheel cover. I look up higher and is coming down the rear driver's side of the block. Also noticed that it was rather thin. Hmmmmmm
Looked at the top of the engine and found puddles in the engine valley. I swabbed a bit out of the valley and found oil and diesel mixed. Great. Found the fuel bowl drain valve just drenched in diesel residue. Ok, there's the leaking diesel. Looked around for the source of oil and found that it has been coming out of the base of the ICP sensor.
The third kick was the fuel pressure gauge mounted on the engine no longer works. It sits at 100 psi with the engine off, then turn the key and it pegs out. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr. Not my day, just had to vent.
Found the Viton o-rings for the drain valve for cheap. Any ideas where to pick up another ICP sensor? I'll be digging around, but any suggestions are welcome.

I had the same problem, though itg was very small. I bought my new sensor from here. Works fine. Hope it helps!
