Took out the rust bucket for a big toot yesterday.
The furthest and fastest drive I have done since I got it 3 years ago (70 miles at 85mph). After parking it I notice it was leaking ALOT more oil than ever. After opening the engine bay (and removing the air filter housing), I saw a pool of oil in the drivers side rear, corner of the warm airguide/engine tin. The only source I could see is the "port hole" where the transmission cover meets the engine. The oil seems like it was spurting out towards the drivers side because there is nothing on the passenger side. Presently I am at the lowest allowable level of engine oil according to the dipstick. Any ideas on what is going on? Could it be transmission fluid? Ahhhhhhhhhh 914 ownership fun. Thanks in advance for your help!!!!!!!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |
