HELP.
Problem #1.
Okay, tonight I rewired my broken turn signal. There was one wire that
was fried to totally bare from the turn signal to where it connected to
what looked to be some sort of a fusable link, but I'm not sure what it
was. I was able to get all exterior lights to work, except, brake
lights (haven't tried them yet) and turn signals. At this point, I am
suspecting the "Turn Signal Flasher Unit" . The problem is I have no
idea where it is located. Can someone lead me in the general direction.

Problem #2.
I removed my oil sump and replace the gaskets, and the two little cork
strips. Well after running the engine this evening, I have oil leaking
out from the from cork strip. My gasket came with two different
thickness cork strips (I used the thin ones) I am only leaking from the
front gasket. Am I supposed to use different thickness in the front
than the back, and what is the best way to get the gasket to stick while
you put on the sump. Do you put the cork strips on the sump on the the
engine. I guess by this time you can tell you are dealing with a
complete mechanical novice. Oh well you have to learn sometime.
Thanks for all your help.
Rob
