Yes, after putting in new oil cooler and turbo oil lines I have yet another leak. It's coming from somewhere near my oil filter, but it was hard to see at night. I noticed my oil pressure was low. So I pulled over and saw oil shotting out. The funny thing is that the car was running well, and the idle is fine. I had the car towed home just to be safe. The worst case would be a crack in the rear housing. If that's the case then I'll just pull the motor, port a spare housing, and install it. Then I'll have an excuse to repaint my engine bay and make everything pretty. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

you can always find a bright side to breaking something :smilewinkgrin:

Yup. I've been dying to pull the motor out so that I can clean up the engine bay. The motor was still starting ok, idling smoothly, and the vacuum was good. I'll take a look when the rain stops.

Sure, if you pay me. :sigh:

Update: Last night when I stopped I added 2 quarts of oil. I checked it this morning and the level is fine. I started the car up this morning and it was idling at 750 RPM with 16" vacuum AND 30 PSI oil pressure, but with a slow leak near the oil filter. :notify: Now I'm pretty sure it's either the oil filter or the oil filter assembly.

AH! my friend we are in the same boat as u well know. I still can't figure it out! So when u get it fixed tell me what to do, im going to work on it some more tonight. Now u know how scared i was. :wow: ur vac pressure is @ 16? wow mine is @ 19. :p The only scummy part is my oil pressure is @ way below 30:cry:

Vacuum is a little lower with a ported motor. I don't feel like messing with it today because it's raining.

MEEEEEEE TOOOOOO!!

about a week ago I got into the same situation and I'm losing oil like a champ....it started leaking somewhere around the filter and hasn't stopped since....even with alot of light I can't see the damn thing and theres no gushing of any so I'm also thinking that it's the oil filter assembly. If you narrow it down let me know or I'll be removing every thing this week.
