Well my problem is an exhaust leak and something leaking on the front. I can't tell whether it's the valve cover gasket or the harmonic balancer. I believe it's the valve cover personally but I had a guy with some experience with diesel take a look and he thinks it's the harmonic balancer. I'm gonna clean it up this week and find out. I couldn't do the exhaust gaskets this weekend because the damn thing wouldn't start. It seems like a bad glow plug or two. Brake cleaner started it and once it got that first fire it purred like a kitten. Hopefully I'll be able to get under the hood tonight and find out if it really is the glow plugs.
