Hey I need a little help. My car has been leaking oil from the left side just in front of the back wheel. I pulled the rocker panel off and traced the oil up and it looks to be coming from the oil tank, which is mounted in the fender. The tank looks pretty solid so I don't think there are any holes in it. Where are these prone to leaking? I'm just looking for a place to start looking. Also, how do you remove the tank? I see the oil filter screws into it from the engine bay and there are several lines running to it but I can't see how it's mounted. Sorry if these are stupid questions but I'm new to the 914/air cooled world. PS, it's a 3.2 from an '89 but I think the oil tank is stock 914.
Thanks |
