Sir Traveller Report post Posted April 15, 2021 Hello Everyone… I have a 2003 Ford F-53 RV Two months ago I did an oil change, the recommended amount was 6 quarts, but most forums recommend adding 5 quarts fits then check the level and add as needed. So I added 5 quarts but got busy and forgot about checking the level and adding more till 2 weeks ago, so I checked the level and added about ¾ of quart… few days ago I noticed an oil leak, I got under the RV and saw the leak was forming around the AC compressor belt, is that normal after oil change? Does that mean I overfilled it? Could it be different type of leak? Or is it a sign of something more serious? Take into consideration I have not drove or moved the RV, I have been hooked up for the last 5 months Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huffypuff Report post Posted April 15, 2021 Sounds like spilled oil to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted April 16, 2021 F53 compressor is under the engine. I am guessing you spilled some down the fill tube and it channeled down or the front cover is leaking. That engine is not known for oil leaks. I think I’d clean it up and see if it reappeared. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Traveller Report post Posted April 27, 2021 thanks to all replies... I will clean it and try to find the source. so far it is still leaking very slowly ( one drop every few hours ) the color of the oil is golden / brownish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
