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

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.
