We saw that on about an '81 I think,at the Indy MBZ shop I was service writing at for about 6 mos. Leaked right on to the customers shoe!!

I still have to find a way to get all that oil out of the lines.
We had the dash out to change the Diaphram of the vacuum pod, and the Speedometer Cable looks clean and the Oil Pressure Guage/lines looks to be sealed with no leaks. So I guess we'll have to check on the other suggestions posted here. Now if we find the problem... We are in the same boat... How the get all the oil out of the lines!.!
