As usual I think non apply. I posted a picture of where it is.

Are you attempting to say "non applicable"?

Regardless of where the oil in your air system is exiting, had you read the threads I linked, you'd see the air compressors allow oil to migrate into the air system via the rings.

So you finally picked up the truck?? :beer: Inboard or outboard tank?
Yeah! Went up to Camp Ripley Thursday. There was a snow plow convention going on LOL The DOT was doing their training for drivers. Funny thing a friend of mine just got on board with the MNDOT he was up there, but we didn't see him.

I had to add a gallon of antifreeze, other than that all fluids were good. The truck started right up after cranking about 30 seconds. Bonuses, BRAND SPANKING NEW BATTERIES! Medical kit, Jack, handle, Inflater and hose, chocks.

The recovery was uneventful(except in our minds) Was nice meeting CWO3 at the base. Truck never missed a beat all the way home. The bed is in great condition, a little scratches here and there with surface rust, but nowhere near the pics I've seen on this site.

It's not the tank, I'm seeing it on the venting I assume from the ctis system.

Thanks my friend. How's it going over there?

So then it's normal or are we going to dance around?

Read the threads and find out.

(this is one example of how new guys are getting increasingly harder to deal with. Get an attitude and you'll soon get ignored and the older more seasoned guys are going to find it harder to help you when you really need it.)

1 Patriot-of-many, Congrats on the "new addition" to the family! Glad your recovery went well with no major issues. Things are going well here, same war, different day. Down to my last few months now, so time is flying. I'll be glad to be done and home. Too bad it will be winter and sevely limiut what I can do on my A3 until spring. Keep up posted as you get the new toy all fixed up.

I'm actually hoping the search guys will ignore me. If they don't want to help, just don't post the useless crap. I asked a simple question and a photo. How hard is it to answer yes it's normal, or no it's not normal?
**** seriously, does this site want traffic or not?

:ditto::ditto: its kind of become a "thing" to start most questions with something like "I tried the search function/ used search/ could not find ..______"
search is great IF you have specific terms and know what your looking foraua

this helps keep the "search guys" at bay.. good luck!

How hard is it to get a cup of coffee, sit down and read the information that was given to you? You'll find out that you would probably learn alot more than the one thing you were looking for.
I'm not retired, I work hard for a living, I have a family and I don't have the time to wade through 500 posts to ferret out a possible answer.

Granted when I have time, I certainly have learned a *&*p load from people such as yourself already. Thanks.
