Drove the car this morning around town. Had to bring 7-8 gallons of old paint to the Crud Wagon. Each year the town has it come by to collect all the bad chemicals. I also had about 4 gallons of old contaminated diesel in a large Pool Chlorine powder container. At the current cost of diesel, I though of trying to clean it but realized it was over 1 year old and had algae in it.
I then had the car sit in the garage for 4-5 hours. No oil leak. I then de-greased and pressure washed the engine and front suspension. I will let you know about the oil drip situation after a 100 miles or so.

So far so good.

Dave
