FYI - 3208 Lube Oil Leak Problem Solved - bberic35 - 11-07-2010 11:02 Few days back I was looking for info on source of lube oil leak I had on top of our 3208. After checking on my own and replacing the lube oil hose to the air compressor, the leak was still going. Finally decided to turn it over to a real diesel mechanic. Turned out the lube leak was coming from a bad O ring where the fuel injection pump shaft is inserted into the block. Mechanic had to open up the front end to remove the fuel injection pump. Big job - beyond my capabilities! Regards, Eric 84FC35SBWL2 FYI - 3208 Lube Oil Leak Problem Solved - Fred Hulse - 11-07-2010 12:23 Eric
