Why would the range be less than the previous sale price? Sounds a bit off from the beginning...

[Birds]

Yeah, real estate agent got a scare when he called us asking if we had any offers and we said we knew it had sold for 600 previously...he spouted some shit about them being desperate to get rid of it, prolly to cover his ass.

What could cause a sizable (a4 sized) oil leak.... under load only?

Car can idle forever and not otherwise leak a drop

[emts]

my split oil return line did that....

[Kinkstaah]

Oil return line to Turbo? I have swapped that already sadly.

I should probably also say that it looks like it's dropping on the front sway/running down the sump.

Can it be anything other than the front main and/or oil pump gasket?

Don't see why they would be load-based however.

[emts]

yeah turbo to block,

when on boost oil appear everywhere, on idle nothing.

What do you mean A4 sized oil leak? Bruh cars oil pressure usually rises with revs, you should know this. More pressure = More likely to leak

If it's coming from the front then it's likely to be Cam seals or Crank seal.

[Kinkstaah]

Yeah I figured it was pressure related, but wasn't really sure how more pressure wouldn't just cause something to fail fully.

What I meant by a4 sized, is that the patch on the plastic cover under the engine (under the sump etc) is about the size of an A4 sheet of paper.

Don't know much about oil (of all the problems Ive had this one is new)

Cams all look dry, well rocker covers at least. Nothing is oily above where the Harmonic balancer is, so I figure it has to be the crank seal, but again, don't really know shit and could very easily be something else I never knew about

Are you sure it's oil and not ps fluid?

[Leroy Peterson]

so ive been thinking of what JayZ passed on to us, and im not sure of his situation.

Did he have bitches, and that theyre not a problem or that he didnt have bitches therefore they werent a problem?

[Borci88]

Sometimes it's hard to see a cam seal leaking, usually you'll see it down the side of the lower cover and pooled around the crank. It's all about finding the highest point that the oil is leaking from, oil can't drip upwards after all.

Both

He was saying that bitches present no problem for him, when he has them and when he doesn't.

It was originally gold, and I thought it was trans fluid (Transmax Z is gold) but it was just new oil as it gradually got darker, and the fact all the PS stuff was completely spared. It also gets all over the hard trans lines and where they connect to rubber joiners so I've had many "Ah I bet its just XYZ!" to be found no, sorry, it is not XYZ.

This is what I thought too, the highest oil was on the merge point of the top and lower cover, I can't think of anything else it really could be, hence the post because I r n00b

[Borci88]

Clean it all, get rid of all traces of oil and go for a drive to see where it starts off again.

Bets are on Rocker Cover Seals, Cam Seals, Crank Seal.
