Well lucky enough I caught it before it dumped all of its oil on my garage floor ! The car will start right up and doesn't start leaking til it heats up. I also forgot to note that the car sat for 11 months before I bought it. Some of the seals may have dried out.? I dunno??? Another thing too is I'm guessing that the leak is the o-ring. Where else would that amount of oil come from? And it looks to be in the general vacinity of the dist area. I could't get a really good look at it due to the engine being hot. I was able to check the tightness of the oil filter and that was good. Before the engine starts to leak it seems to run pretty good. I do hear a light ticking noise but nothing that sounds BAD. I drove it about 3 miles nice and easy to my house when I bought her knowing that the car sat almost a year. All 4 disc brakes had surface rust on them and wanted to make sure I would stop at the light. The oil pressure was good, the temp was good everything seems to be fine. I'm going to attempt degreasing the engine and then I may be able to determine where the leak is really coming from. Any input would be great ! Thanks guys.
