using oil

[chrism7508]

my 99 f-550 is using about a gallon of oil in 300 miles. the truck seems to run normal. I pulled the intake tubes off the charge cooler and found oil. is the oil coming from the turbo? any other ideas where its going?

does it smoke white or gray? if it is, the turbo may to blame. But it would probably be smoking pretty good, if it was burning that much. My guess is your oil is in your fuel. Most likely culprits are a bad injector or bad injector orings. Pull your fuel filter and see if the fuel has oil in it. Good luck.

when the truck is cold it smokes alot and the exhaust smells horible. no oil in the fuel filter.

what about anifreeze?

[chrism7508]

no oil in the antifreeze

[Jarrod B]

is there any oil in the vally? or oil leakage on the block any where?

[chrism7508]

it doesnt look like any of the o ring are leaking oil was seeping from the therma plast boots on top of the turbo and where it goes into the intake

it could be internally using oil take off the oil fill cap and see how much blow by you have.
