there is oil leaking behind my engine, it seems to be almost just under the bottom of the intercooler. on the driver side, in that area at least, but i can't see exactly what it is. Is this common at all? any one have any idea what it might be before i go digging in there too much.
Thanks |
the first thing is where the oil filer base attaches to the engine, those always leak. you need 2 o rings to fix it. 9954-10-1601 from mazda

i have already replaced those
|
yeah i have a 88 se and its burning oil what should i check first is it the exhaust gasket or should i just rebuild it the eingine is way over 100k?

its supposed to burn some oil. what else could it be besides those o-rings, since i've already replaced those, maybe i put them in wrong?
|
by intercooler, do you mean oil cooler? up front by the radiator?
mike |
NOPE, INTERCOOLER. THE ONE ON TOP OF THE ENGINE
|
well the only things up there are the turbo oil feed and the oil filler neck?
mike |
MAYBE ITS ONE OF THE OIL LINES, PERHAPS THERE'S A LEAK AROUND ONE OF THE FITTINGS OR SOMETHING. I WAS KIND OF THINKING THAT ALREADY
|
maybe make sure they are all tight for a start? its kinda leaking in a wierd spot
