Oil Leak

[Desert Spyder]

:roflblack: Back in the days when I was in college I had a '54 Chevy with a leaky rear seal. It would lose a gallon or two of oil a week commuting up a big hill to school, between what it burned and what it leaked. I worked at a gas station, so I either used re-refined oil at 10 cents a gallon, or scavenged the drainage from the cans we used for oil changes to get me by. That stuff didn't even have a uniform viscosity rating, much less additives or synthetic anything. BTW, that old six banger didn't even have an oil filter...they were optional back then. Thanks for the memories.

They were aftermarket or optional. My $50 Chevy was strictly as-delivered, OEM. Most of those accessory filters were not full-flow filters anyway, they only received a portion of the oil flow, from a tee in the line...fairly usless, except for wiping your butt.
