Anyone know why my oil is leaking? My cap doesn't seem cracked. It's dripping out of the cap, seems to be quite little but still too much. I have like 10 spots on my driveway (haven't driven the car for a couple weeks due to partout). Weird thing is it wasn't leaking before I removed my suspension, which obviously has nothing to do with it. The car hasn't been driven and just started leaking. I tightened the oil cap and it's still dripping. Do I need a new oil cap? Maybe I'm wrong about where it's leaking from?

drive slow homie...



Yes, it seems like its from the nut. I wiped it down yesterday and saw a drop forming there a couple hours later. just unsure how that could have started happening randomly..



when you last had your oil change did you change the washer on the drain nut?


You might need a new crush washer or the drain plug bolt could be damaged/threads in the pan could be damaged.
Usually a easy fix, so hopefully it's just something small that needs to be replaced.



Looks like I'll need a new drain nut. Oh well it was time for an oil change anyway
Stupid noob question:
When I took out my DP, I fakkin destroyed the fiberglass trying to rattle it out and put the old one back in. Is it worth going back and fixing or fak it?


**** it.



I think most of us have haggered that stuff up. Up to you really, just tried to make mine look somewhat pretty.

what fibreglass?

The fiberglass that used to surround the DP which is now in my eyes, nose, and hair.




Anyone have a mailing PO box in the statess/buffalo? I was looking at getting a FMIC or atleast putting pieces together to make one but the S+H is crazy so I wondering if anyone had done this before.



Send to CBI is Niagara Falls, NY. Cheap, easy, crossing the Rainbow is a breeze both ways. Do the round trip for when it opens Saturday and traffic is good and can be back at home and still have the entire day to install said FMIC.



+1 on CBI...I just went last weekend to pick up some stuff from there


dont bother with a fmic
Oh damn, that sucks. Oh well, I stopped reading the Speed section because according to certain people only speed owners are allowed to even look at that section.

does anyone know why I can't put my fuel pump back in? No matter what I do it just won't go in.. I exhausted every possible leverage option - crow bars, pulley system, knot system, 3 people forcing it in and nothing. I can't get it far enough in to do all 3 bolts. There is way too much resistance. I even went to jimmy to have him check to make sure we reinstalled the internals fine and he said it was all good. I spent 2 days this weekend trying to put it in!
Someone no MSF suggested I crank the motor to push the cam lobe back in but that did nothing..
