It looks exactly what happened to me. The oil feed line to your supercharger comes out of the block on the left rear of the block. It was a fairly simple fix but I had to pull the SC. I took pictures but never posted them. The clamp on a water line to the radiator coolant tank rubbed a hole in the oil feed line. I had oil sprayed all over my rear bumper and it looked like it was pouring out the exaust on the left, but it was coming from above. I only lost one quart of oil before I pulled over. The fix is a new oil line and I rotated the clamp away from the line and also put another bigger hose over the spot that was at risk. Good Luck, Will
that's great info. sounds very much like the problem robyn had. it did look like it was coming out of the left exhaust too as i recall.

hey, robyn, do u have internet access from those cheesy motels in the midwest? how's ur roadtrip going?

Robyn, I have had a bad case of "Head in ***" disregard my failed attempt at being funny. Obviously it didn't work!!! I probably shouldn't even be on-line. I have lost my Best Friend in the world and trying to find ways to escape. I'm Sorry!!! Regards, Kenny

Back from my whirlwind trip, on my way out to Carmel for the weekend.

The car is still up on the lift, taking parts off to get to the problem. We will know more next week. Sucks...SUCKS...I'm off to the concorso in the tow vehicle!

You can now officially change your plate to: THE DRIP

I'm sure it's not a huge problem, you know those damm SC are prone to spring a leak with the oil lines..... I've sprung at least 3 maybe four leaks with my FD. I now know how to swap twins in less than a day.... BTW: The white CHP is out ther mainly for transportation..... He must have known you'd need a truck..... The one time my car when down on the highway I had three trucks show......

Good Luck,

-Eli
