Evo IX oil leak found
Ok first off i took the timing cover's off and oil just poored out.
From my observation and 2 hours of the freaking car not dripping oil i decided to give it some gas, and when i say gas i got a little mad so i blipped it off the 2 step for a sec lol.
Well then the oil started to leak from where? i dunno couldnt freakin tell so i start checking bolts and what not and WHAT DO YOU KNOW the oil filter housing had 2 loose bolts. BUT whats even weirder is if this is what was leaking then how the hell did i get oil all in my timing cover and its all over the place. i know the oil can get slung but i honestly dont think this leak "if its even leaking from here" could spray like that.

well that didnt fix it either, so its not the oil filter housing non of the oil line on the oil cooler, not oil filter, its stillleaking like a ****. there is not oil coming from the valve cover nor cam seals so i dunno guys. and i cranked the car without the timing covers on and it wouldnt leak if my life depended on it.
