Re: [T3] oil leaks & clutch prob's

I'm not sure what oil rubberseals you mean I put two green ones (thinner )
in the inlet and outlet holes of the oil cooler .
I don't know that the studs have their own seals ?
BTW, the clutch is fine now .

If it's leaking from edges of the oil pump cover, replace the gasket or use
a suitable silicone sealant. Did you also replace the 3 oil cooler stud
rubber seals? Sometimes over tightening the nuts can cause leaks as well,
the five seals compress too much and warp, at least they can do on
Australian engines.
