OK, my car is leaving thick black oil on the garage floor. It isn't from the tranny because thats new clean gear lube. I have some minor oil drips coming off the engine, but again that's also clean, not at all like the black goo on the floor. Oil cooler leaking maybe? If so how do I get to it to check and tighten mounting screws or whatever? Thanks.

get her up in the air, and go over the whole thing with lots of rags and some cleaner...
Make sure to clean off the top of the HE cause they can hold wuite a bit. Then run it, dont drive it... You should be able to see the basic location of where it is coming from. The big culprits. Valve cover gasket Push rod tube seals Oil cooler Oil pump F/R main seals. And lastly, oil galley plugs can seep. Rich |
