i can see it slowly spurting from around the 11 o'clock area underneath oil cooler. I checked the spring thing in oil cooler relief and its good; torqued nut to 53 ft/lbs; and torqued spark plug nuts until all under spec. Like i said in earler post, i had the gasket on without leaks and it re-occurred. Is there a blockage upstream that's raising oil pressure at this weak point and causing leak or did gasket "sllip" and start leak again?
How much will this leak lower oil pressure? Enough to screw me or can i wait til weather gets a little better to deal with it? Thanks
