Hey folks, could use some help here. I finally got the wagon back together and decided to take it for a short test ride. The motor runs like crap, but we'll leave that for another time as a much more pressing matter is at hand here.
About I mile from home was when I noticed the giant cloud of burning oil smoke billowing behind me. A half mile from home is when the oil light came on. I managed to get it back in the garage and it wasn't making any unusually horrible noises. Shut it off and looked underneath, and there's oil dripping from everywhere, and a steady stream of oil that leads all the way back into town. At some point something let loose and began spraying oil everywhere.
I took a look under there, and obviously the oil is leaking from where the oil goes, the oil cooler and oil filter area. Sprayed pretty much everywhere.
I reassembled this thing because it was leaking before I took it all apart. I discovered that the cooler lines and such had been replaced once before, and probably not properly since it was leaking. However I reassembled it based on what I saw, which may not have been correct. I didn't realize that there were replaceable seals on the tube ends and there was a black round gasket with two holes that came with the Fel-Pro set and I only just now realize that it was in there. The black gasket fell out this time, and I can see that it's hard as a rock.
So I have these gaskets from the Fel-Pro set. I ordered new oil cooler seals. I have the service manual on hand to see what parts go where, but I don't know which parts in the gasket set match to the picture.
Obviously I did something wrong, I'm not sure what, aside from failing to change one of the gaskets and replace the oil cooler line seals.
I also would like to know which gaskets from the set I should have used. I used the square-shaped ring gasket and not the o-ring, for instance.
Thanks
