As the 7.3L trucks get older, oil pan leaks get more and more common. One of the most frequent sources of oil pan leaks is from the factory dipstick adapter on the side of the oil pan. Typically, this is a fix that would require removing the engine, Strictly Diesel has developed a solution that can be installed in way less time and will fix the issue for good!
We’ve seen a number of interesting repairs on the stock dipstick adapter, most involving some sort of sealant like silicone…and some even involving epoxy-type products like JBWeld. We’ve also seen the dipstick adapter nut over-tightened to the point of distorting the adapter inside the pan (in such a way that it would never seal again, even with a new o-ring).
