[T3] Oil leak

["Gary Gamboa" <gary_gamboa@hotmail.com>]

<x-flowed>Hello,

I was driving from Cape Cod to Quincy, MA, about 70 miles. When I got about 
30 miles into the trip, I stopped and noticed smoke coming from under the 
right side and through the right vent. When I looked under the car, the 
smoke seemed to come from the lower HE. There was also about 10-20 oil drops 
on the ground. This oil smoking has happened twice so far, between these 2 
occurences, I have made numerous short trips with no oil smoking. Why didn't 
this happen on those small trips?

I had just changed the oil, and the guy who did it mentioned that 2 of the 
oil housing bolts were moving freely. He also mentioned there was a kit to 
replace these bolts cuase they frequently do this.
Does anyone know of this kit?


Thank you,

Gary Gamboa
