[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] '91 V12 weird oil leaks
I have carefully traced the oil leaks on my otherwise pristine '91 XJS Convertible. Symptoms: Oil leaks when driving at high speed on the highway, drips on the exhaust causing small puffs of smoke and embarassment upon parking thereafter. The oil is leaking from just above the oil filter. I can see a pool of oil collecting on the upward facing end of the oil filter. Someone on the list mentioned a common oil leak in this area before. Supposedly there is an o ring, or gasket that fails in this area. Could anyone with experience please tell me how to go about fixing this oil leak. It's damn hard to see anything in that area of the engine, and prior experience would help me tremendously. Thanks, Julian Mullaney
