    Mystery oil leak from top passanger side of motor

    After an engine rebuild, mine was leaking oil everywhere you described. I thought it was the back of the intake as well. I thought it could be the valve cover but it didn't seem to be coming from there. I was going to pull the valve cover just to check and the right rear bolt was hard to turn...

    Texas Buick Nationals 2014 Flyer

    Thanks for the call Charlie. I will be there, car or not. Car is up on jack stands with frame washers welded in where the frame rusted out around the body bushings. Now I have to replace some metal on the car body that was also rusted out around the bushings. Good motivator for getting it...

    Losing my mind over oil leak

    I installed a brand new rebuilt engine in my car and it leaked oil at the first start up. Driving it blew it all over the downpipe and everything on back. I went to re-torque the valve covers and the first bolt kind of popped loose when I barely loosened it. I re-torqued the 1 bolt down and...

    Fans won't turn on.

    My fan wouldn't come on when I bought my car. I checked the fan wire to the starter and found it hanging.

    You might be experiencing Detonation if...................

    Is that the engine that ran on either 4, 6 or 8 cylinders? My parents had a Coup De'Ville when I was a kid. I think it was an '83. I was fascinated with the digital readout that told how many cylinders it was running. The engine never ran right and they traded it in on an '83 Z-28 off the...

    Parted ways with a friend

    I feel for you. I had to sell my 99 Formula the first tine I tried to put the baby seat in the back of it. Lowered, corvette rims, Super Yank 3500 converter etc. I was able to buy a GN years later. Things change, but gotta take care of family first. Posted from the TurboBuick.Com mobile app

    Big suprise tonight!

    I have two kinds of nightmares. Snakes and tidal waves. And I'm a long way from the ocean. My high school friend and I killed 61 snakes over the course of a Summer in Oklahoma. I hate snakes.

    New M/C Show On Discovery! Anyone Buy This?

    Hardcore pawn, Amish mafia, storage container wars (pick a show), south beach - lizard lick - etc all scripted "reality" shows in my opinion. Just to name a few.

    Ego kill; Police / US Soldier Confrontation.

    It's not against the law to bitch and complain to a cop. Verbal abuse is just part of the job. The kid was upset from a 45 minute response time after getting assaulted. Police are trained to de-escelate. The cop escalated the situation instead of defusing it. He handled it wrong. You don't go...

    Can someone tell me what this is. Pic inside

    Yeah, my original timing chain went at 140,000. I had only about 500 miles on the car since I bought it and thought 'surely the timing chain was replaced already'. All valves hit the top of every piston. Happened at 70mph on the freeway. I went with a double roller with no issues with knock...
