Shannon,

Sounds familiar. Is the oil leaking from the middle section, pooling at the
trianglular plate that supports the exhaust under the motor? Mine is (I have
a 91 GL as well), and I suspect it is coming from the rear main crank seal.
Good luck!

When the oil is any more than half way up the dip stick I get a leak..
somewhere I can't tell.  I have cleaned the engine and tried to see where it
is coming from, but have had no luck.. is there a trick to finding an oil
leak?

Thanks
