ICP sensor question?

[jlansaw]

Less than a year ago my 2003 6.0 with 95000 mi. started leaking serious oil. Of course the ICP sensor seemed to be the source although I wasn’t sure as I’m not a diesel mechanic, I’m just a dude with some mechanical ability. I changed out the sensor myself and the leak stopped. BTW, because of a buddy’s employee discount, I used the Int’l part not the Ford part. Not sure if this matters? Eleven months later the POS is leaking again from the same general area. It’s cold, my new shop isn’t finished yet, so I haven’t been able to really look it over. Is it likely the ICP sensor has failed again or should I be looking for something else? I’m looking for a little coaching. Any help would be appreciated!

Jet wash the engine off really good and start leak hunting. 6.0's leak all over. Helps to look at that ICP with a mirror.

Yes it is common for those to pop apart again, the later model ones are made better so they stay together
