2001 Dodge RAM Mysterious Oil Leak
Morning all,
I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9, 4x4 with 120K miles on it. Can seem to find a possible oil leak that is happening. I have placed cardboard on the ground nothing. Filter tighten correctly, no drainplug leaks.
So I loose about 3 qts, and not all the time and only when seems like when oil is due to be changed. Not pulling a load or putting any excessive driving, since I drive 180 miles round trip a day.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help
Lew

Since you scanned and that's what it says and the sensor is only 25 bucks why wouldn't you get it install it check it and then if it doesnt fix it return the part? You dont need us to tell you that. Start with cheap fixes if its not that then go into more complicated. And since you have a 04 JEEP Liberty I think jeepforum in the 04 liberty section would be more fitting heres the link

@OP, seems the crank/cam sensor wires like to crawl under the intake when you are bolting it down. I know it's a pain, but, look carefully along the back of the intake for pinched wires, and make sure you hooked up the grounds up by the power steering pump as well.
