That's your problem! -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Dirksen <cajun-eskimo@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 11:25 am Subject: [tcb] Re: Oil leak question Ohh it is kinked, could that restrict the pressure enough to blow oil? Dang gone I never thought that could do it I'll check it tonight. Father in-law will be shocked if that's the problem, he helped me drop the engine yesterday and put it back in, Well I hope it's something that simple. Sawyer kinked the hose! ha-ha J/K it was Jenkins idea! but it would be surprising if it were that simple.

Make sure your oil breather isn't kinked or blocked. -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Dirksen <cajun-eskimo@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 11:03 am Subject: [tcb] Re: Oil leak question it does look like it is slinging from behind the pully, that doesn't sound good.

If so you could have a cracked base. Is it slinging out from behind the pulley? Too much crank case pressure will cause that. -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Dirksen <cajun-eskimo@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 10:47 am Subject: [tcb] Re: Oil leak question Mark, They all sound bad, I'll start checking all. Will, I did not pressure test the oil cooler, wish I would have now. I think the next step is to go through it again and see what I come up with.

Looks to me like it leaks more on the left side/front engine compartment, didn't see any evedence of leaking in the rear of the engine. Curoius, if anyone has other tips to check on.
