Default Oil Leak, WHERE??!?! OMG
Ok, I've gotten just about every leak fixed on my '00 Trans Am, except one. I don't know where the oil is coming from, but its puddling a little underneath my throttle body, right where the valley cover is on the block. Anyone know what Im talking about??

go get you some oil dye from your local parts store and then use a black light to find it
