were is the carborator
Were is the carborator on the 1993 6cyl f150 pick up? After I got my fuel filter changed (and it seems to run ok so far)the mechanic says its leaking oil ( yes I can see its leaking,the gaskit are what ever you call its tech name is for it is history and I need to get it done asap) on the carb and will cause a fire, understandible, but I didnt think my truck has the typical carb that I seen on other vehicals. I have two mechanics saying you have one and you dont. Thanks for the help guys this forum is a bigger help then most of the so called mechanics here at work.

Dee, may be you have a picture of your oil leak? It could help to understand a problem.. I've never seen oil leaking on a carb or even close May be it's a valve cover gasket leak ?

Smack dab under the engine is the oil pan, that can(and will) leak oil. A carburetor is located on top of the engine and, to my knowledge, does not leak oil. Your truck did not come with a carburetor, it is fuel injected and would have a throttle body in place of a carburetor.

Thanks guys I'll keep you updated. P.S. I'm telling all my freinds here at the hospital about your forum.
