Oil can come from anywhere, pretty broad question. But check transmission, power steering pump, power steering switch and obviously around the engine...have fun hunting.

phong =P~

to be on the cat it'd near have to be power steering fluid... When the switch leaks they force it back up the loom and it them comes out where the hego sensor is, near the cat...

nah its aimed at me. He wonders why people treat his threads as a bit of a laugh when he authors yet another ebay resistor thread. People cannot be that stupid, hence why some think these threads are a little on the troll side. Makes a lot of offside statements that prickle the spidey senses.

Aparently insulting wallan, even with a big smiley on the end of it riles those people up. must be the inbreeding. :shock:

1) its not hard to find an engine oil leak, you wash it down and see where its coming from.
2) if no engine oil leak is found you move on to the next type of oil
3) the type of oil found on said cat wasnt specified so how the F**k are we supposed to know where it could come from. Could be canola oil for all we know without details.

Ill admit this thread isnt as bad as the resistor one though.

crosby611 +1 Kid makes a fair point. It is too easy to just rag on ppl for what we see as the obvious.

hang around the site mate, its full of good information and ppl (just dont let smart C*** like me deter you :wink: )
