Greetings,
I hope someone can provide some insight into a mechanical problem I have on my hands. One of my work trucks a 97 gmc 2500, recently had a major repair. A seal was replaced to stop coolant from entering the oil. Ever since it came back from the shop it would leave a big puddle of oil on the ground. Soon after being shut off. We take it back and they say its just a old leaky seal that is now more noticeable. I don't buy this excuse but anyways lets fast forward to today.
I start the truck and immediately oil is pouring onto the ground. Its a steady drip now. I let it idle and warm up then shut it off. It ran for a total of 10 minutes. Drove it zero miles and lost HALF a quart. Something went horribly wrong. I'm willing to bet when they worked on the coolant leak they disturbed something else. How should we go about fixing this? Go back to the shop and get mad?
Before I forget its a 350(5.7L) motor. It has 430xxx KMS Always serviced every 5000kms. No other major issues.
