[QUOTE="zukkev, post: 1355558, member: 17121"] Yes, it could be in all those areas as far as a high pressure leak and you'd never see it by checking the crankcase oil level for consumption, but the OP was asking if the leaking Hpop oil lines with bad orings could be the cause for the hard start...chances are slim to none, as mentioned before. Again, if you had a leak under the VC, that bank would likely not be running properly at all...and as for an injector o-ring, there would likely be evidence in the fuel system (black fuel filter element in short order) as well as a cylinder not firing due to the loss of oil to that injector.... And FYI the HPOP res holds a little over a quart of oil when empty...I've refilled plenty of resivoirs after a HPOP replacement. Also, the 3000 psi is only under heavy throttle, at idle the pressure is only 550 or so---still enough to create a minor 'Gulf of Mexico incident' under the hood!:redneck: One would have to have a pretty accute awareness of the oil level in the crankcase to use this way of determining whether there's an issue...But it can be done, at least to point one in a direction. To the OP...Mav, just how well does the truck run otherwise? Is the idle smooth, good power??? I can't say for sure when you were up here---but I seem to remember when you started it, the idle 'loped' momentarily right after startup? Get that clutch replaced first then report how it runs,as these issues may seem like a poorly running engine, when in fact the dual mass flywheel is out of balance from coming apart...:awesomework: [/QUOTE]
