hey everyone, i have oil leaks.
i changed my valve cover gasket, rear main and pan gasket. The drivers side of the engine is completely dry the passenger side is soaked. I degreased the engine a while back and that's how i found out the rear main was bad. I now think/hope that my oil pressure sending unit is leaking (17 bucks at auto zone) I plan on buying the dye you put in the oil and use a light to see where the leak is, I'm just curious if anyone has experience with it and if there are any tips on using it you could pass on. such as how long do i let it run before looking at the dye so it doesn't just go everywhere and i cant tell where its coming from. or if i need to change the oil afterwards. and just in general how it worked
TIA
