Hi Guys,
I'm fairly new to the forum and have recently purchased my second TR8 (first one was 5 years ago). This one is relatively low mileage but needs a fair bit of work. I've ordered all the suspension goodies and about to get to work on that aspect of the rolling restoration (great recent thread about that I noticed in the forum as well).
My question for this topic is the car has several substantial oil leaks. What are the primary culprits on an '8 and what can be done with the engine still in the car? I'm thinking (if needed) oil pan and heads, what else? Rear seal has to be an engine out job, what about the front?
Thanks,
Chris
