Keep an eye on your oil level - if it increases then stop using the truck as the thinned oil will not be lubricating the engine properly - and there is a chance of engine runaway. |

Keep checking it -regularly - when the seal goes it is possible for diesel to leak from the pump into the crankcase - hence the level will rise. |

With a stock seal the last symptom to show is fuel in the oil but it's best to check until it's fixed |
