| Hi, I've changed my fluid in my GT (manual 5 spped) and the drain bolt was realy torqued on. I've re torqued it to the right specs and now I have a slow drip. Is there suppose to be a crush washer ? I' can't see one in the books that i have. |

Get some thick gasket material from Lordco and cut yourself a
"washer". No more leak. Dawg ------------- You dream it up....I'll make it |

| I was thinking of a soft alumin washer or a copper crush gasket. But I'll try the gasket material first. Just wondering if there was an SB on it .. |
