As I had posted earlier, coming back from a Memorial Day trip to Santa Cruz I noticed my 1991 Syncro Westy had oil residue on the back of van and there was a decent amount of oil dripping onto my driveway as I unloaded the weekend stuff. The responses to my original post suggested either the oil cooler o-ring or the oil pressure switch amongst other possibilities. I single these out because this problem seems related to extented high RPM chugs up grades such as Pacheco Pass on the way to Santa Cruz from the Valley. Otherwise, no oil leak, no oil residue on the back of the van, it dissappears during everyday driving. I need several things from the list... Is my diagnosis correct based on the suggestions from the responses to my earilier post? Where can I find the oil pressure switch? And if this is the problem how do I remove and replace it? Your suggestions once again are very welcome. Jim 1991 Syncro Westy
