Well, I thank everyone for the input. I'm sure it will help.

Pete - Thanks I'll let you know if I need that pipe. You say it's a rather involved process replacing that o-ring? Guess I'll have to wait until it warms up a little because I have no garage to work in (well I sort of do but it has the '78 in it right now and is blocked by the non-running '85 :)

Roger - I knew about Pete having that problem. I actually e-mailed him a picture of the oil all over the ground asking him if it looks familiar.

Dennis, Ed, and Unca Joel thank you for your advice as well. I hope it is only that oil cooler ring.

I'm burning off some serious bad Karma. Patty and I got home tonight (after work, eating, and some shopping) and the house was cold. The damn igniter to the furnace is broken - too late to get a new one. Drove to Patty's parents house about 30 miles (one way) because they had an extra. Got home and the damn connectors are different. So I cut the ends spliced the wires together - installed it. Turned on the furnace and the damn thing sparked up and broke. So here we are with the electric blanket, the camping heater from the bus, three cats, two dogs, and Patty and I. It's going to be a cold morning - I'm glad Jack is at his mother's tonight.

Oh, well life can dish it out sometimes but I'm not complaining too much.

-- Thanks,

Jeff '90 Carat (Grover) '86 (We call this one Parts) '85 GL (Preparing to move to a new Home) '78 Bus (Melissa) Patty's Bus
