Stardrilling Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Naturally--I'm needing a part for it and naturally I'm wanting it cheap since they are worth mostly what the metal man is paying for metal. I do have one in a GMC Top Kick I use for a water truck. It runs fine and starts with a bump of the key so no need to discard just yet. But it has an oil drip I'd like to stop as plan on towing a 1 ton Ford and do't want my Ford all oiled up. Leak is from the oil filter--cooler combo unit. Has 2 special O rings where it mounts on block. Replaced and same. Cast seems to have a hair crack you can't see with eye as oil seems to just seek thru. I going to find another unit and swap. With all these old engines lying around on their sides there must be a buch out there waiting. Comes off with 4 small bolts--easy if engine out. If not--you need a trained snake with a 9/16 in his mouth. Anyone have one handy??? THANKS!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
