A couple of issues


Recommended Posts

Hello guys, I'm new to ukso... but not to starlets... I am a member of tgtt but figured I would also join here. I'm hoping someone can help... first of all I have a slight oil leak on my ep82... I jacked the car up and washed underneath and am just letting it tick over as we speak... no sign of oil from the engine yet... but I have found a leak which seems to be gearbox oil... it looks like it is dripping down from where the speedo cable goes into the gearbox (which is the factory fitted LSD gearbox)



Take a look at these pictures

Secondly... my boost gauge reads -20inHg on idle and my boost controller is reading -41cmHg



I realise these are to different units of measurement but I always remember my boost controller reading at -50cmHg



I converted -20inHg to cmHg and indeed it should be approx -50cmHg



Am I right in saying that this indicates there is a leak somewhere between the engine and the boost controller?



Thanks for taking the time to look at my post




Anthony
