    Oil leak from hell HELLLLLLLLP

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    did some curseing last night and got to hooters and oil was spilling out on ground car smokeing like mofo

    1. its not coming from the tranny housing so rear main is okay
    2. not turbo supply
    3. not turbo drian un less its sparying oil out a pin hole or somthing
    4. not turbo seal no oil smoke out the exuast

    5. so WHERE THE **** IS IT

    i think it's oil pan gasket or timing cover gasket......

    any other thoughts?

    its not small i lost 2 quarts on the way there and one on the way home..... i'm not sure if boost make it leak or just higher RPM (did not boost on the way home)

    Oil Pressure sensor? It's right at the front of the engine, next to the oil filter. Mine went once and it leaked like crazy! It's an easy and cheap fix too.

        FOUND THE LEAK
        It looks like the gasket that Intense racing oil PSI kit has in it, gave out and the oil is leaking around one of the bolts !!!!!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

              Are you sure it's not the sending unit, it takes quite a bit to damage the adapting plate unless you bolted it in wrong.

                  pwned!
                  Looks like it was overtightened.
                  You know, I think you might be able to get away with it by just welding it.

                    tried buble gum alredy it didn't help

                    with me running the high oil PSI i would rather just get a new on and be carefull putting in the T next time lol
