914 Oil Drip



The oil drip continues...

Before we started the car we checked the oil and it was about 1 quart low. Added about 1/2 quart and started the car. Let it idle for about 15 minutes and it was not 'peeing' oil any longer. We are seeing a steady drip of oil here...

Original oil leak video here...

Thanks to the 914club.com for all of the assistance in troubleshooting this leak!

Wheel Before & After

Built Ford Tough!


Project Window Regulator Begins!

Read the reviews here at the AutoBeef

THE REGULATOR PULLEY IS LITTLE CRUSHED ON THE GROOVES AND THE CABLE IS A LITTLE CRUSHED ALSO. I HATE THE THOUGHT OF BUYING A NEW ONE BUT, I HATE THE THOUGHT OF HAVING TO TAKE IT BACK APART WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN. IT KINDA LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN THERE IN THE PAST.

UPDATE: New part received and installed (10 minutes) on October 26th. Alright FordParts.com for the good deal.

Fresh oil around the oil cooler. Felt around the oil filter and didn't feel any oil leaking from it.
