Question Oil drip on the bottom of intercooler

[jyoung]

I walk out to my truck this morning and I notice an oil spot on the driveway. I jump under the truck and notice some oil that looks like it has been dripping for some time now.
It looks like there is a small amount of oil getting into the intercooler and than dripping out. (The oil drip is on the drivers side)
Any ideas on what is happening???

Thanks, Jeff

Is it a residual amount from the lower hose? If the intercooler was cracked, you'd know it.

It looks like it is coming from that area, So is it OK or is there a problem?

You could remove the hose, clean everything up and re-attach. Alot of trucks have this problem. More of a nuisance than a real problem.

Thanks, I pull everything apart and clean it out.
