Oil & Fuel it's pouring oil, please help

[ch1ch2]

If someone mentioned it I missed it. But here is a thought.
I had a hydraulic hose to the oil cooler break. It did the same thing as the video.

by the way if the hoses were damaged should this be obvious from the outside ? Because the hoses look fine from exterior...

No necessarily as the fitting could be bad with just a small crack, bad o-ring, or built/crimped incorrectly and you really wouldn't see that.

If it were mine a good dousing with engine cleaner and hose off, would make it easier to identify the source,

Would suggest using 2 people and in neutral have one person just crank engine over with fuel shut off / decompression pulled , That way the leak won't completely cover everything with oil-before the other person watching can spot the source of leak..

Damage to the hose exterior would be obvious. There are two wire braids in that type of high pressure hose. It's remotely possible that there could be a leak where the hose end is crimped to the hose.

I'd start snooping around the hydraulic pump if it's hydraulic oil. Most are driven off the front of the engine so that puts it in the area but I doubt it's belt driven but geared off the crank. Maybe it's a seal that spewing fluid on the fan belt which is then slinging it all over the place. Poke around the high pressure pump output. Careful! High pressure hydraulic fluid can do a lot of damage so use a piece of cardboard or something to do your snooping.

If it's coolant it's probably a bad water pump seal so you'd replace the pump and the gasket.
If it's engine oil look around the oil pump which may be on the front of the engine, mine is.
Check all your fluid levels whatever is low will lead to where your problem is.

Where'd you buy that thing anyway, across the border? Good luck finding parts.

Manufactures install skid plates and side shields on industrial and logging equipment for a reason. A stick will always find it's way into a wiring harness, hydraulic line, v-belt , coolant hose or something within minutes.

I'm sure that's just what he wanted to hear, DICK!

Wow, first that's amazing! what a great shot getting in there like that.

Second, there is a lot of sound advice here to follow up on.. with that level of consumption it should be easy to pick out which type of oil it is by reading all the levels. Just looking at the short vid clip and I know its very messy and almost impossible to tell but Im betting hydraulic pump seal.. There is so much fluid that you would see a hose or line that was damaged aiming at it.. It looks to me like is coming from the pump shaft

just my .02 for the day

I totally agree. Pump seal failures like that almost always are caused by deadheading, which is almost always due to defective quick-connect couplers for the loader attachment. We may never know the outcome though.
