Never heard of an oil cooler leak. I would think the O rings would last a long time if the cooler was never pulled. Mine lasted 225k and looked pretty good when i pulled it

I'm currently away at work, but I did some searching online and I think it may just be a small leak from the oil pressure switch. It's just a small drip or it has just started as there was only a very small oil stain around the switch and where the oil cooler connects to the engine. Ordered a new ac delve pressure sensor for $16, hope it solves the problem. How have you been Jon? Get the car out a few more times with the nice weather we had the other week?

he took it apart, and decided he's done with this scene;
he selling it to the highest bidder to buy a Kia Sorrento for it's versatility, and super warranty.

I heard he was getting one of those Nissan leafs because they are friendly to the environment and had a 0-60 that he was more comfortable with.

that might be...
it's been a while since I saw him last;
I think I read a review that puts those Nissans in the same catagory as an old VW, or Chevette;
0-60mph = sometimes
lol

Funny story- many years ago when I had a 76 firebird formula ( wish I still had it) my sister borrowed it leaving me her Chevy spectrum 3cyl. I pulled out in traffic on a 55mph highway in her car and thought I was at 1/2 throttle. Realizing I was to the floor I started apologizing to people behind me, and it took about 1 full mile to get to 60mph. I would rather drive a moped.

ha-ha!
I actually stole that from an 'Audio Adrenaline' track entitled "Chevette";
A '76 Formula huh?
350/400?
auto/stick?
I might be a sucker for old Firebirds - especially the single headlight cars, and early Formulas...
Interestinly the '75-76 Formulas values are still a little soft - there are deals to be had on them...
Just saying
