ive been seeing a small leak under my truck over the past few months....i dont drive it every day. so ive gone under it a few times and cant find a leak. i know its oil. today i decided to take another more indepth look. when i started the truck and let it warm up i found that the oil filter was spitting out oil very bad. i tightened the filter. and restarted the engine, again it leaks oil around the seal of the engine oil filter.
i also noticed the oil pressure gauge is at around 60 instead of 30. and the engine temp is rising slightly over 210 also. recently i changed the rotor and cap....i dont think that has anything to do with it right? i know the leak was there before i changed them,
any ideas here guys its winter and i need the truck to plow!! i need to fix this....its dumping so much oil out while idleing i cant drive it....
