Any guesses on where its leaking?
Any guesses on where its leaking? Car always drips a bit of oil was never to concerned bout it. Changed the oil this weekend mobil 1 sythetic, put her in the garage, didnt move it for acouple days, then when i do i really begin to notice how bad its leaking. puddle a good foot by foot or so. ik the plug and filter are tight. any quick fixes other that changing out the oil pan seal? wich would be a pain in the ***!
thanks
thanks
Hey nick I had a fimilar problem but I would only leak a tiny bit, I actually found out that my crank sensor plug had a bad o-ring, so i replaced that and it was all good as new. Did you put a tiny bit of new oil around the rubber lip of the oil filter? What filter are you using? FYI you also have a cast iron block with alummium heads so in natural actions alummium expands(changes shape) I believe twice(maybe more?) as fast a cast iron does. Some people say LT1 will more than likely always leak a little bit, keep checking it every couple of days and see if it starts to leak more or if it stays about the same, if you want me to I can take a look at in sometime.
Here is a couple pics to show you where that crank sensor plug is located.
1)
You take out that bolt and the sensor plug comes out too, there will be a very small o-ring on the sensor plug
2)
This is a picture to show you where it is located at, this location would be right under your hermoice blanacer pully, almost right in front of your rack and pioion. Hopefully this helps, let me know if you need help (402)-525-1416
