Probably the nisport, could be oil filter or housing. You need someone to do this with you???

Wow, I just googled Cecil County and it's only 5 more miles from where I live than Maple Grove Raceway (just south of Reading, PA) And the car ride is easier and free, (paid tolls to take turnpike to Maple Grove)

I want to go down and see what my car can do. Check out my cardomain for all the goods, I just put in prothane motor mounts today!

The oil filter housing sounds like it could be right. There has always been a very slow leak with a drop or oil here and there. I checked the nissport with the car off a couple weeks ago and that didnt seem to be the problem but i cant be certain. It wasnt loose or anything like that.

Joel- If your going to be around give me a call. Ill probably start around noon. Im really hoping it is something that can be taking care of easily but you know how that stuff goes

Well things didnt work out very good today. Its still hard to tell exactly where it is coming from. I pulled the axle and the bracket so i could get a clear view. Its def not the nissport adapter so lets check that off the list. I pulled the chain tensioner thinking the gasket may be bad but all seems well there. Except the fact that i cant get it back on?? Then i was thinking PS fluid but it looks to dark to be that but still a possibility. I was planing on filling the PS reservoir completely up and running the car to see if the level went down but cant get the tensioner back on. Any tricks to get it on?? I also pulled the oil filter thinking it could possibly be the rubber gasket but that looked good as well.

So next if its not the PS or the CT i will try to pull the oil filter housing like joel said. I wanted to do the easier things first. Is there a gasket or something that could go bad that would make the housing leak?? ANyone ever run into this problem?

Never had that problem but there is a round o ring type seal behind it. Maybe 2. I doubt that's it so I would fill the PS fluid and check that. Mines is leaking now as I need the brass washers to fix my leak. Monday I should be free around 4 let me know if you working on the car around this time. Holla!
