Need Help Fast
had a problem today. pulled up to a buddies house and left the truck running, came back after about 5 minutes with a giant puddle of oil under my truck. turned the truck off, popped the hood and oil everywhere. none on the dipstick. looks like it came from just under the piece of plastic that says powerstroke on it, looks like it came out with some pressure too. truck is an 02 if it matters. any ideas here, truck was idling fine so i hope it isnt screwed. any help would be great. thanx

looks like you high pressure oil lines. you going to have to inspect the lines, and if you cannot find the leak this way , put the oil in it and just have somone crank it up, but dont start , and im sure you will find it. and REMEMBER put the gogles on, so you dont get hurt.

well the lines are PITA to remove, you need a tool for it, , regulator , which BTW mechanic... said its a HPOP reservior, no leaks there, IPR which sitts on the back of the pump, might leak, and ICP sensor on the driver head might leak but not a lot, and you would not be running
...... so i suspect HPOP lines
anyways you have to look, thats the only way to tell.

well you cannot prevent HPOP lines to blow, or anything like that since its not a rutine maintenance item. but save yourself GRAY hair, get a rag and clean it up a bit, than let us know where its leaking, we tell you what it might run you to fix it, some are Very expensive some cheap. but we not psychic's so you have to go there and look
