OldsmoBeast Posted January 31, 2003 Report Posted January 31, 2003 my 'brilliant' GM dealership said that it was the Oil pump drive seal and O-ring or something like that. they changed it for me at some rediculous price and i don't think it's leaked much since then...it might have leaked a little though. I'll only be able to tell for sure when the spring rolls around again. But I believe this is the cause that shawn has on the website, no? Quote
