Buffalo Man Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Hey everyone! I traced my oil leak from front to back, doing each gasket as suggested by cruiser54. The transmission is leaking from the front and the back. It just kind of sucks because I don't want to put good money after bad. No way it's under 8 hours of shop time, so I figure $1000 isn't out of the ballpark with a clutch while I am up in all that. Otherwise it runs pretty well. No grinding at all. Vacuum Disconnect works well. I eventually plan on making it a working truck, but I think if the poo-geot makes it a few more years, that might be enough for me to build out or buy a nice ax-15... Thoughts? Obviously money is a consideration here. I think $1000 more is all I can put into this before it has to help me make money or sit indefinitely l. I'm an absolute amateur and don't have lots of tools, but I have a roof and a slab and a few jackstands lol
Pete M Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago 1000 buys a lot of oil. as long as you can stay ahead of it, it can leak for decades and you'll be ahead of the game. My PT Cruiser leaks oil, antifreeze and r-134. eventually I'll fix it all, but I'm in no hurry because I simply keep it topped off each week
