'87 TII

Just as I'm turning into my sub-division, I notice I had zero oil pressure. Remembered that I was working in the area of the oil sensor, I popped the hood to re-connect it. The connector was indeed disconnected, but the real issue is the entire engine bay including the bottom of the hood was soaked in engine oil right in the middle of things.

I'll be into it tomorrow (if it doesn't rain) to find the leak and fix. But, giving you guru's a chance to vote what it might be:

1. Blew the oil cooler.
2. Blew an oil line to the oil cooler.
3. Other. (give your detail

 

you could have cracked the rear iron where the dowel pin inserts

This may be a stupid question, but the oil filter didn't loosen up and blow off did it? What about the oil pressure sensor itself? You didn't take it out and not tighten it back down did you?

 

The oil cooler lines are kind of in the front of the engine bay....

Although one does run to the rear of the motor off the cooler...

I duno man, good luck.

 

And the answer is:

Pressure side oil line where the hose meets the coupler, engine side.

DAMN big mess. But, at least I know the problem and what I'm going to be doing next weekend.
