Hi All.   just read a post about a leaking sump.  Here is a nice trick for finding fluid leaks I have used many times. Clean area with brake cleaner and dry.  Spray on foot powder..I use Dr. Scholls.. Fire up motor if needed. The spray on powder is just talcum and alcohol. Any fluid leak will show instantly in the dry powder. Be ready for funny comments from friends about the foot spray in the toolbox.    Oly

I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
