Oil Leak on the '01 L

[TXRickC]

been seeing some oil spots in the garage past 2 weeks
now, not a whole lot, but one every 2-3 days. Looked
underneith, looks like it's coming from Passenger
side, between head & block. DOH!!! It's not a lot
underthere, pressure is fine, runs normal.

im real familiar with the passenger head gasket issues. On my 2000 L the first engine was replaced at 10461 miles for the leak. At 21000 miles my passenger head gasket and head was changed for the same problem. At 23456 miles the engine was changed again. All for the same problem. Spoke with SVT on the hotline and they said there is a problem with the head gaskets. Will have a fix 1st quarter this year. I applied for relief under the Arkansas dispute settlement board, aka Lemon Law, and won. I am going to pIck up my 2002 Silver Bullet tomorrow. Sorry to hear about your ride. I am a hydraulic troop in the Air Force, and my job is to find leaks and fix them. We pay 30000 bucks for a truck. It had better not leak...


Hollar at me,
