ISX CM2350 Oil pan gasket turned bad!! - sprayerman - 02-23-2025
What started out as oil pan gasket replacement ended as likely a much bigger project... Anybody have any thoughts that are optimistic?

It's highly possible that your fuel pump failed. Take the head off the pump and look for damage. Have you been driving around with the check engine light on ? If the engine is saveable it's gonna take a lot of flushing and a lot of parts. Sorry to say it could just be a boat anchor.

Yep we are going to take a look at the fuel pump. It had been rebuilt. The truck had been running just fine, by chance decided to fix oil pan leak.
Thanks

I see copper, steel, iron, lead,.. a thorough inspection of your engine, the bearings, and likely the cam too is in order ...
Pull a main bearing! ... inspect the face gears, overhead cam, fuel pump, etc.etc... that engine is most likely toast!.
btw: like others have said ... fuel pump failure is the number one cause of such total destruction with little to no warning.

Plan to dig deeper soon. Truck is not worth much so I'm not sure how we're going to handle this.
