2.2 liter 6, if you drive the car for half an hour at highway speeds oil is every where. Drive at a low speed, even highway speeds but for short periods of time, no problem.
I know this is vague, but what do you think? Seems the oil is coming out where engine and trans join. |

I assume you are not new to this car? Engine oil is filled to between the two lines on the oil dip stick and this is with the engine running on a level surface when warm. Otherwise you will spray oil everywhere... Ask me how I know... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) AND make sure the breather hose, is ALWAYS going up,so oil cannot be trapped, causing crankcase to PRESSURIZE.,If it were the flyweel seal, it would leak all the time, THE ABOVE POST HOWEVER is probably exactly your problem. maybe you should throughly drain the engine, and slowly refill it,crank it up ,at 1-2 quarts LOW...immediately read the dip stick,keep rechecking, as the engine gets hot. RESOLVED this exact problem..6.. months ago..on a friends 911.He just overfilled it with oil. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |
