Dipstick Adapter Repair Kit 7.3L 94-03 73DIPSTICK.COM

The leak at the dipstick flange is a well known issue with the 7.3 Powerstroke motor. The leak develops because the factory O-ring mounted inside the adapter swells over time due to exposure to oil. As the seal swells it actually deforms the inner piece of the adapter causing the outer nut to loosen. Some people will try tightening the nut to stop the leak and that can work temporarily, but it only deforms the inner piece more.

The factory repair for this leak is to remove the pan and replace the whole unit from the inside of the pan. This is a time consuming and expensive repair. 
    
There are a few aftermarket options out there designed to repair this from the outside of the pan. 

There is a weld in bung option, Requiring welding to dissimilar materials with pipe fitter skills. 

​There is a bolt on unit that requires dropping the internal part inside the pan and leaving it there loose.
Our kit reuses the internal part and moves the seal to the outside of the pan. Nothing left abandoned inside the pan and no welding.

    Put this on my truck about 2 months ago, no leaks! Was an easy install. I used a bore brush to hold the flange adapter and everything went great. He has a decent YouTube video at 73dipstick.com

    Wow! What a great invention! Saved my butt from pulling the motor! Its a little nerve racking doing it the first time and trying to make a "holder" for the piece that is inside the pan. But I took a steel clothes hanger and it worked out fine. End of the day....truck has no leak and I'm happy!
