This isn't a tractor but some of you guys know Ford Pickup diesels pretty well so I'm asking here.
My neighbor bought a F350 dually with a 6.7 and a little over 200,000 miles on the clock. He was driving on the interstate when it developed tremendous blow by, blowing oil past the front crank seal and emptying the oil pan. He shut it down as soon as the oil light came on. Had it towed to a dealer, the dealer mentioned scored Pistons somehow caused by cylinder wash down from a malfunction during the regen cycle? I'm scratching my head on how this can happen. This is the story told to me by the neighbor. Can this happen? If so, how?
