Default Unknown oil leak. Please help!
Hey fam! I’m in need of some assistance.
I just recently replaced my rear main seal, oil pan gasket, oil pump, and filter. Mission went really well however, during a test idol afterwards (checking for leaks) I noticed this connector situated next to the distributor cap was leaking oil. No idea what it is. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
