Oil Leak

Oct 25, 2003 5 Replies

I have a 94 Ranger with a 2.3L. I have a very small oil leak i am trying to pin point!. It runs off the back of the engine and own the the end of the tranny. thought it was a valve cover gasket but it isn't! it's not the tranny either! Any guesses out there??


TIA Rick

Distributor seal, or oil pressure sending unit.

That is.....if it's coming from up top and it's not the valve covers.

let us know....

Rick, I have a '91 Ranger 2.3 similar leak check on the driver side of the engine toward the back on the head. on my '91 the oil sending unit is there and it was leaking very much as you described. I replaced the unit and leak gone.
