[Shotimes] Location of Leak

[Dave Kegel]

The first thing is to identify the fluid.  Is it oil or something else.  If
it seems like transmission fluid, it could be power steering fluid.  The PS
lines run around the back of the motor.  You'll just have to clean
everything really good and then watch to see where the leak comes from.
