In the same inspection as the oil leak a rear tail light was out, even though it worked fine at the house 10 minutes before. We fiddled for a while to finally get the bulb retainer to ground so they would pass the car.
After finishing the TR-6 I had hoped to tackle rebuilding a Jag XKE, but decided I'd had my fill of the British imports.
Dijja buy a Honda?
Yes, but did the tail-light leak oil?
I had an old Triumph motorcycle once that developed a crack in the crankcase breather/overflow tube where it ran along the rear fender. The leak was in such a location that when oil mist leaked out through the crack it entered the tail light assembly.
At some point prior to me discovering the crack, the tail light bulb burned out (not an unusual occurrence on those paint-shakers). When I unscrewed the lens and removed it to replace the bulb about 4 ounces of oil leaked out.
