I was working on my mine over the weekend and through process of elimination, I discovered there was blockage in the metal line from the Manifold to the Firewall connection. Although I am not certain how that happened, after clearing it out out coupled with a few squirts of 3 & 1 oil, the...

Please disregard.

I had a feeling this would be the case. On the bright side, however I am hoping this was the root cause of the massive oil leak was experiencing.

Thanks. Is it the rear seal that broke apart?

Update. Hopefully the photographs uploaded. I removed the oil pan and although everything looks really nice, it looks like I have a rear main that went out based on the fragments that I found. I guess the question of the day is is this a repair that can be made with the engine in the car or...

Sure wish it was Bob but that's the first thing I ruled-out. Thank you anyway.

Thank you very much. I will certainly take a look. Like I mentioned below, I certainly have some work to do.

I believe I have found the problem. Wish I could post a photo, but it’s giving me a hard time. But looking at the pressure plate, I have visibility of at least three fingers. The one to the far left is standing very proud compared to the other two which in-turn look very worn. Very uneven. At...

Gene-Jay, Really appreciate your inputs and if I can make it home from work before it gets too dark in my garage, my intent is to really conduct a close examination of the arm. If I am lucky, I will find a crack and the root cause. Jay, I have owned the car since Jan 2020 and initially, I...
