    I must comment on your gearbox support method. Ingenious way of doing it, well done!

    Fitted a new power steering return line. That`s two leaks now hopefully fixed. I know I know I`m on the road to no where trying to cure all the oil leaks, but it has just got too bad and some thing has had to be done. Fitted a new fuel filter.

    Yesterday I did a oil change and filter. I also investigated a sudden drop in oil pressure. Was running fine at 41 psi.Then a little while back I hosed of the front end of the motor in preparation to changing the radiator and since then I have had a 5 psi drop in oil pressure. So I removed the sump and checked the oil pump pick up for blockage, alas that is not the issue. Next I will check the relief valve to see if it has stuck. When the sump was of I noticed how clean it was in side.
