    Default 94 6.5L Oil problem.

    I was driving the ole rig this evening & noticed a burning smell.

    Pulled over & lifted the hood.
    Drivers side valve cover and everything else on that side drenched
    In oil. Haven’t checked anything out yet.

    Oil pressure gauge seems to stay where it normally does
    As well as checking dipstick seems like it isn’t losing much oil
    But must be coming from somewhere.

    Thought I’d see if anyone had any suggestions or had same issue before?

    Clean the mess up and then see where it's coming from.

    The fan is going to spread it from front to back for sure...

    Check the rubber hose section of the turbo oil drain line if it has one. It's a possibility for this.

    Disregard my previous entry. Missed where you said "driver's side."

    I blew the oil drain hose once and the fan put the oil all over the place.
