oil leak
now i got another problom with my 95 f-350, started it up this morning went to pull outta the driveway and i look at the drivway and theres a trail of oil droplets all the way down it, pulled back in and looked under the truck and the oil pan and everything is dry on the engine but on the drivers side there is a mess of oil over everything around the steering box oil dripping from the frame and all over the suspension, can anyone give me any advice about where it could be coming from? gonna clean it all up and try and find it but dont know what could be leaking there right now.
think im gonna get this fixed and sell her off, tired of replacing parts this last month has been bad!
thanks

Glad you got r dun. I have not had to do this yet but how hard was it pulling the cooler.
Also you may want to run the truck and then catch a sample of the radiator coolant in a glass---later and then check to see if any oil settles out on top after a hour or two.
Q- for the forum
Is this a tube & shell exchanger or a chambered exchanger?
