multifuel m 35 oil leak

i have a hercules powered m35 it has oil dripping solwly out of the exhaust pipe any ideas what it could be would be a great help thanks dustin

sorry its a non turbo engine also




JUST BRINGING THIS UP ONE MORE TIME FOR A LIL HOPE THAT SOMEONE MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP BECAUSE IM GOING NUTS HERE

turbo oil seals or head gaskets.

oh sorry forgot to mention its a non turbo engine

Just before you go for the likely technical defect: if your truck has been sitting outside without a cap on the stack, it can happen that water gets in, washes the soot down the stack and "oily" water that collects in the J-pipe drips out somewhere. Just verify that is not something dead simple as that; after a good run all the water should have been blown out and there should b no more leakage. If it still leaks....what westech said!

the truck dosent have a stack just a regular muffler i tiio the muffler off and you can see the drips coming out lil by lil ,

why would the head gaskets cause an oil leak?

Look at that oil carefully. If it wicks and forms a wet circle around each drop it is probably oil. If the drops dry and look like black water color paint, it is slobber. Diesels that idle too much have lots of slobber. MF's are especially prone.

The multifuel engine over fuels itself by design, the fuel is still being injected as the downward power stroke is occurring, helping to lubricate and cool the cylinder wall. when running at rated RPM, no trouble. When idling, serious over fueling, washing through the engine, exiting through the exhaust valves on exhaust stroke and finding it's way out through exhaust manifold gaskets, and all exhaust system joints. It is called slobber and is very apparaent on non turbo multifuel engines. I have been through this personnally probably 30 times and at first thought the motors were shot. 13 years later, I've learned, run them but don't idle them and the slobber will decrease very much. My turbo deuces and 5 tons don't slobber as much, I imagine a lot of it is cooked as it heads out bound to the stack. IMHO, your engine is OK, run it, it will clear out the more you run it. Don't idle below 1000 RPMs any more than neccessary which will also save your headlight bulbs from vibrating themselves to death. JT out

does it idle smoothly?? bad injectors cause slobber too.

yea she runs pretty smooth no skipping that im aware of
