420A Bad oil leak V2

[TuJay]

My oil leak got worse and still can't find where is pouring from at this point you could follow me home from the trail of oil she leaves. I'll post a pic of how it looked after 1-3 minutes of sitting. Where would a leak this bad come from?! (It's not a Craked oil pan/broken filter/ loose drain bolt)

If you are having a hard thing me finding it you can buy some oil dye and pour it into engine run it for a minute or so,then turn off and use a black light with yellow safety glasses to find the leak. Most auto repair shops can do it as well if you don't have the black light and yellow saftey glasses.

I use dye all the time, a little bit goes a long ways!!! Don't let it run very long at all and get out the ultra-violet light/black light and start looking for a yellow/greenish tint....it will be obvious and oil runs downhill so the highest place you see it is getting you close to the problem.

Sorry , hadn't refreshed my screen here at work. Just do as Dstarperformance0 recommends, it is a very good method!

Just giving you a hard time. Lol.
Both of us are correct.
I noticed that your shop name is one I was going to use for mine, Wilson racing. I'm going to go with Wilson Motorsports instead

Well what a GREAT name. My boys and I do this as I am divorced so its a guy thing. Oreilly's has me as
Wilson Engine Shop .

OP: I don't use a whole little bottle of dye, I usually use half of it...it really does go a LONG way and will be helpful to you! Post back your findings.
