[QUOTE="bac2ba6, post: 616128, member: 13538"] As above they do leak but if your loosing that much oil that wouldn't be the only culprit as it would be everywhere inside you engine bay if it was . As said need to give it a really good clean down and check the common areas like oil cooler , push rods , even the threads on the sump cover you can get oil running down them and the copper washers between the nuts can get miss shapen if they've been over tightened , is there any oil dripping down from where the engine meets the gearbox ? As there could be a blown flywheel seal but again if there was loads of oil in there I would of thought the clutch would be slipping like a gooden . Untill the engine is cleaned up it's almost impossible to find a leak when there's oil everywhere [emoji106] Sent from my FIG-LX1 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
