Well! sounds like it's a heck of a deal. The truck leaks about 2-3 quarts between services (I change oil every 3k) and it is just a very slight drip if the engines not running. It has been parked in the same place in the shop for about a week or more now and theres a spot of oil on the floor about the size of a golf ball or maybe a little bigger. the heater would just stop moving air into the cabin and the fan would continue to run. I have a couple threads on that as well. I ordered parts but didn't find any problems. just a few things that were broken in the disassembly of the truck interior. As for the ABS light the ground that goes to the master cylinder had melted the insulation off of it and shorted out the wire for the dump valve. I've fixed the wires but haven't started the truck yet to see if I'd fixed anything. It didn't blow any fuses so I'm skeptical whether it's fixed or not. I'll research the oil leak today and see if I can find the source. I've replaced the front seal and that fixed nothing so It's gotta be the front of the pan or something in the timing cover.

I tried heating the **** out of the cam gear to get it back on to no avail. I know you CAN do it without pulling everything, but it only works sometimes.
