I decided to have my shop install my rv275's and gould vac pump reseal kit... hoping that I could avoid tearing anything apart myself since this is the busy time of year for work. But now that my fuel and oil leaks are fixed... another oil leak has presented itself behind the motor, I believe from the valve cover. I gave them a brand new gasket from Geno's to install when they did the injectors. I am thinking they must have just not seated the gasket properly as it never leaked there before. Instead of wasting the time (and oil) driving it back to the shop, I want to do this myself. I recently read something about the newer trucks having something interlaced through the gasket for the fuel lines, is this true on our trucks as well? I am hoping it is just a matter of popping the valve cover off, readjusting the gasket and tightening it down again. On a positive note, the truck feels awesome and is regaining some it's lost fuel mileage already since the injectors. Once this leak is sealed my truck will be damn near 100% which is a rare thing haha.
