Hi,
You know, sometimes you read a post and the "the light comes on".
I pulled my TR6 engine to fix an oil leak, blah blah. All fixed and
reinstalled. I run an event last weekend. No probs. Just a couple of drips
from the oil filter head.
So, I do my fluids-check and nutnboltcheck and the engine is down a quart.
I look EVERYWHERE for evidence of an oil leak. I figure being down a quart
is a lot considering that I made three 60-second autocross runs, so there
sould be a giant puddle in the trailer or a lot of oil on the frame -
nope. nothing. no puddles, no drips.
Doh - I forgot that I had purged the oil cooler lines!
Question answered.
Thanks for the thread!
