My V10 doesn't leak any oil or stink or roll coal or clank and rattle ��. Sorry I love my V10.
Coming home from class this week I was raced by a dodge 1500 and wooped on him. O yeah and I was driving a focus��.

All my antics were about Pat's oil leak. I had one similar in a 7.3 but it was a stick and the clutch plate actually wore through the back of the oil pan. Amazingly enough, it was fixed for another 200K miles with JB Weld. Sure wish I had a hoist that day.

Anyway, with that much oil loss, it should be obvious. Normally I'd recommend putting dye in the oil, but this should be visible from 15 feet.

So, how did you score the free fuel Rich?

I'll buy the beer, so who's driving to Pat's rescue?

That v10 has beat many cars/trucks. Mazda miata, diesel trucks, its quick for being 14 yrs old 190,000 mi with nothing major done to the drivetrain.

Super cross was fun last night, buddy got good tickets. It was almost ruined-the place ran out of beer before the race even started. Fortuitously we smuggled our own beer in. Now I have to go see what trouble Jen's brother got himself into at the boat show (hopefully they didn't run out of beer).

Happy Sunday!

Little driveway grading, and beer drinking already done.
