Part of my oil leak issue (Trinity TOD) perhaps?

[mike sampsel]

So I looked at my hose off the top mount. And it looks like this.



Time for a new hose, planned on it anyway.

Yeah.
But check for oil spill under the shroud as well as it cloggs the finns of cylinder and oilcooler

[mike sampsel]

Thanks, I needed that

Seriously, agood idea!
I was in Frankfurt once 97 or so. auf wiedersehen

The cloth lines are not proper lines. Solid rubber that are formed to the curves will work better.

I believe the cloth oil hose is correct for your year of 911 .The rubber 2 piece connecting only rubber hoses came from 1980 911SC.

I see there is oil spill under my shroud. Need to unplug my alternator to get it off.
I note the bolts which fasten the shroud are not all the same length. Unfortunately I was not careful to note the location of the shorter ones. Wonder how critical?

Got the shroud off, and there is of course oil under it.
Shows the TOD could spew oil to all my places I've seen leaks.

After some cleaning:

Interesting it spewed oli up into the top of the fiberglass oil cooler cover (which is now off and upside down in the photo below). Certainly is not the rear seal doing this!
