OIl leak & So glad I found this

[Duck-Stew]

damn stu, that is one early time to be up on  the west coast.

when i was doing this i was thinking "crap, i ripped the damn rubber seal"  but overnight didnt' leak one bit.  so its all good now.

also put on that hex bolt drain plug from monsterparts.com works great, though think i will have to tighten that up a little more, did it with a torque wrench to the spec 40nm but have to check later with a better wrench.

See the hell I go through for you guys?!?  YOU try being a moderator on the Tech board and see if you can sleep at night?!?!?  (j/k!)

I use PerForm filters, hand tight, zero problems.

That's an option too.
