trouble shooting oil leak

Unread post by pipemaster » Mon Feb 03, 2014 11:22 pm

I have a 02 trailblazer that is leaking oil on the ground about the size of a 5 gallon bucket. Very hard to pin point where the leak maybe coming from due to oil all over the engine. Realizing that this might possibly be front seal but can it possibly b e sending unit? Could I get an opinion on this matter please

it could be from almost anything. A leak that bad should be quick to find. clean your engine with an engine degreaser. let it soak everywhere you thing the leak may be coming from. follow instructions off the degreaser. then wash it off and let it dry. then start the engine and look for the leak.
