Hello Everyone,
Been lurking here for a few years and decided to register here since I've reconized some real good recomedations here by the techs & experts
I have an F250 that has the infamous bell housing oil leak. The engine has been replaced because of an oil leak in the past due to excessive crankshaft movement and would eat up rear main seals. Now with this new reman engine I've had now for a couple of years is now leaking again. I've looked at all the external locations that could cause oil leaks and every place looks dry except around the bedplate which leads me to think its the oring seal between the bedlplate and block. The truck is out of warranty so any fix will be on my nickel. I've done a little research and found a engine seal called White Shepherd engine leak which suppose to consist of plastisizers to swell engine seals. Would using such a product cause problems with the seal on the high pressure oil side? Any risk of using such a product that may cause more repairs down the road?
