Oil leak on the new 914, thinking pushrod tubes or oil cooler? Filter is tight and valve covers seem dry. Any suggestions?

The only way to find the source of the oil leak is to actually look.
Put the car up on stands, get yourself a couple cans of brake cleaner and clean all of the old dirt and oil off of the engine until it sparkles. Then run the engine and look for where the leaks are coming from. Yes there are places where these cars leak more than others, but they shouldn't just leak as a rule. |
