I have a leak on my oil cooler seal, a big one. can I remove it without dropping the engine or removing the fan shroud?
Yes you can. It can be a PIA, depends upon how small your hands are. George's Tech tips from AutoAtlanta outlines it. I think Pelican Parts might also outline the procedure.
Either these cars are made to drive us nuts or I am seeing things.
It was leaking yesterday about 1 drop every 5 second. for the 10 minutes idle, i think I lost about 1/4 of quart. still on the floor as proof that I am not loco.
This morning I decided to make sure that the oil was not dripping from my pressure switch as suggested here on most threads. There was no sign , pressure switch area is dry.
I wiped the oil, started the car and let it idle for 30 minutes and rev it every now and then, there was no leak.
has anyone experienced this before?
I forgot to mention that the only thing I did between the change ( from leak to no leak ) was setting the dwell to 49 from 68
Did you top the oil? Maybe you lost too much.
Check that the leak is not from under the dizzy retaining bracket.
