=>Hi All,
=>     Started my 87 8v up this morning and it puked all over the
=>driveway.  It
=>(fortunately) maintained enough oil in the system to get it into
=>the garage,
=>the rest is now a really neat stain in the snow (no I hadn't shovelled my
=>driveway - it was about -20 last night).  I only ran it about 1
=>minute and it's
=>still leaking oil several hours later, so I'm confident nothing
=>was hurt inside.
=>     Anyhow, the leak seems to be the square block-like bit the oil filter
=>screws into from the bottom and the pressure senders screw into
=>in the top (or
=>maybe one of them is the temp sensor for the MFA?).
=>Unfortunately, my Bentley
=>is on back-order so I have to ask.  What is the name of this
=>square bit and how
=>hard is it to change the (presumed) leaking seal at the top?
=>Does this thing
=>just unscrew like the filter?  Is my problem actually going to be the two
=>little sensors on top?  Unfortunately my (soon to be fire
=>starting material)
=>Haynes is completely silent on this topic.  The archives only had
=>discussions
=>about this area on 16v engines that I could find.
=>     I really appreciate any help you can provide.  I'm really
=>not enjoying
=>driving about in a mini-van.  Just doesn't corner the same.
=>
=>Cheers,
=>Colin
