Oil bathed engine
muddyjames:
I have had another look today and it looks like it is hitting the fan and being spread but i couldnt see a spray of oil. the wetest part was by a square lug just below the air con puley idler. maybe wrong as there maybe no oil around there what so ever!
hobbit:
Is it engine oil or power steering fluid(red)
muddyjames:
didnt touch it as i was in good clothes but it looked black. prob not much help.
hobbit:
If it looks black, it could be engine then, have a sniff of it, then smell the oil in the engine and again off the dipstick rfom the gearbox
muddyjames:
just been outside to the disco. sod the good clothes. wiped some off the bit under the air con idler with a bit of kitchen roll. looks black but wiping someoff the kitchen roll onto my finger it feels thin and has a red tint about it.
wiping some off the steering rods its black and is stil black on my finger. that may have been there from when the oil thermostat leeked.
