Hi Folks... I'm trying to diagnose the source of my oil leak and thought I would tap the vast knowledge of the list. I degreased the engine last night to clean things up a bit to track the source of the leak. The leak drops in multiple places below the engine leading me to believe it was just dispersing from the top/side somewhere. While reving the engine to about 2000 rpm I could see the oil being forced/blown from under the oil cooler onto the top of the engine case. Other than that, I can't see where the oil leak is coming from. Is it the cooler itself? What are some other areas I might want to double check. I put a quart in every few days, and I'm worried about taking it approx. 200 mi. to Angel's Camp this weekend.
