Hello All,
I been having some oil pressure issues with my 84 Cutlass 3.8. I pulled the oil filter housing off the front cover and installed new gears, relief valve, spring, and gasket. Nevertheless, I still have low pressure triggering the light on hot idle. But, now, I also have an oil leak. I had the cover off 3 times and it's still leaking at the top of the housing where it meets the front cover and runs down the right side. I can't see anything obvious that would cause this. I used the gasket that came in the melling kit, but it seems to me it's alot flimsier that the original. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I'm to the point of frustration. Lol
