Engine Tech / 2.3 oil leak
Turns out it was the oil cooler. Antique thing that sets in between the oil filter and the block. The seal on the backside of the oil cooler is a rubber gasket that cannot be replaced with just an o-ring. After a couple of days searching for a replacement I had to turn to an aftermarket oil cooler. I thought about just deleting it but decided it must be there for a reason. The change from water exchange and to air exchange took a little modifying to ensure not to mess up the flow of water. But after a forking out a Benjamin and a few hours fumbling around under the car the oil leak was gone.  Next up is aftermarket injectors. Any suggestions?

Engine Tech / 2.3 oil leak
Alright I am pretty sure it is not the oil feed line. I have narrowed it down to the area right under the intake manifold. I am going to pull off the complete intake tomorrow and hopefully find something. I will keep you all updated on what I find. Thanks for the help.

Engine Tech / Same Thing
I just bought an 88 Turbo Coupe. I have a major leak coming from the same area. My question is, I am having a hard time finding where the oil line runs to. I pulled of the upper portion of the intake and am feeling around on the oil cooler and cant find it. Is there any diagrams available online for free. I am really trying to get this done soon and without a haynes manual itis proving difficult.
