Hey, Labor day is coming up, you get a 3 day weekend for that!

Dang it, I guess my El Camino got jealous of the 911 getting an oil leak fixed. Driving back from the appointment yesterday cruising along at the posted 70 MPH speed limit, I noticed a LOT of smoke behind me. All the gauges were normal, oil pressure, water temp, voltage, all normal. I was pretty close to home, so I pressed on. Evidently in the heat, something let go and started a decent oil leak.

So now I "get" to put it on the lift, and inspect what the heck let go. Right now I am at a total loss. Looking at the top of the engine I don't see anything new except the seeping oil leaks that have been there for years. This is going to be fun to fix. Likely not as easy as the three day pulley end seal. I really hope it is not the crank seal. At this point, I have no real clue.
