    Computer issues lately, explains why im not on lately.

    Gets past BIOS screen, then ends up with flashing underscore _

    :(



    oh yeah, been trying to chase down my mystery leak...

    isolated it...


    Bottom oil pump cover bolt has been seeping oil.... could it be oil pump seal? but from what i will do.... I'll have to get my crank pulley off hopefully this weekend, take my friend's bolt extractor, get that stripped bottom oilpumpcover bolt out, check my oil pump seal (oring), place it all back together and **** (carefully), and reinstall a new bolt as long the old ones, alongside using RTV with the bolt's washers and ****.


    been tired of this mystery leak since my timing job.... (last winter)


    throws oil here and there when running


    and that also means low oil in my crankcase...




    i swear i have at least a quart and half of oil left....


    but i think to do all of this, i'll have to pull my radiator.... (done that sooooo many times this year..... gawh)

    but help with the computer please!

    Hmm...I'm normally not too helpful with computer related topics. So I guess I won't be too much at the moment either...Back up the Data, Wipe and Re-Install the OS. <----That would be the lazy method.

    It sounds like your weekend is definitely cut out for you if you have to go down and dig all that out to solve your nasty oil leak.
