ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    oil leak somewhere

    Just did upper and lower tube seals and valve cover gasket. I notice a oil spot under my car when I leave it parked for a couple days, any ideas???

    oil pressure sensor, or maybe your oil filter is not on tight enough. either way they both leak from the same area (pressure sensor is right above filter and is common to go)

      99% sure its the oil pan gasket.

        I got a leak too... Doesn't appear serious. Only happens when oil is hot and viscous. I'm 80% sure it's the oil pan gasket and also the oil apparatus above the filter, hopefully nothing major.

          check by the distributor, i hear the o-ring there likes to leak down onto the tranny.

          I'd also suggest checking the oil pressure switch above the oil filter.

            Where specifically under the car? Best thing to do is to clean the engine, then you'll be able to trace it better. Follow the oil up and forward. Under the left end could be crank, cam, or balance shaft seals, under the joint between the engine and tranny could be distributor or rear main seal. Head gasket and oil pan gasket could leak almost anywhere around. As mentioned above, if under the center back of the engine, could be oil pressure switch, oil cooler (if EX) seal.
