This is facing forward under the middle of the front of the engine. It is three days accumulation and no oil has actually dripped (truck has not moved) I noticed it about a week ago, cleaned all oil off and checked it again this morning before I drove the truck.
Anyone have this page of the fsm pdf? I spent the 10.00 and hours downloading the whole thing only to have my hdd crash before I could back it up. grrrr.
That's a pretty good little acumulation for three days. Like previously said, clean her again and remove the skid plate to see where it's coming from. At that rate, you should be able to spot it pretty quick.
Great write up about it. And ignor the part were I stated that the radiator needs to be removed, that was my mistake. We pulled it out for other reasons at the same time we were doing the oil pump seal.
Edit: I guess it was another thread about that thread where I made the comments about the radiator, oh well.
Took the shield off and sure enough you are 100% right. Oil is from the oil pump cover. I am in Mexico and the Toyota Dealer here leaves quite a bit to be desired. Can anyone give me the part numbers of the seal, screws & crank seal as I agree while I am in there I want it all done. Gracias.
I am here until November and am about to r&r the cooling system hoses I brought with me and remove & flush the radiator/cooling system and I really prefer to take everything apart once.
I removed and cleaned the shield and need to wait until tomorrow to order the parts but I know from previous experience with my Tundra two years ago before they were sold here that unless I give them the correct pn I will get the wrong thing,
Thanks
*edit*
Thanks for the pn's I posted the above while you were posting them.
Anyone? I went and ordered the parts I have the #'s for and they claim to have no way to find lc part #s because their system starts in 2000 which was their first year in Mexico. GRRRRRRRRR
