OIL LEAK
I have a small very small leak at the cite of were the pan was punched its been in and out of my mechanic this is the 3rd time i was thinking if there is any kind of sealant out there i could use as the leak it almost untraciable very small amount somthing that can withstand the heat?

hmm.. idk wer the leak ur talkin bout is.. but i dont think silicone would b safe since it could easily wipe out an o2 sensor..
if its a threaded u could always try to use teflon tape nd wrap it round the threaded area..

Yeah just make sure it dry's before you drive it. The turbonetics kit calls for High temp RTV silicone on the brass fitting for the oil return line going into the oil pan. Its perfectly safe.

He has an oil leak. NO teflon on oil fitting! There arnt any o2 sensors in the oil system also.
