The other day I drove my Topaz home from work and parked in front of the Talon sitting dead in my driveway, I look underneath and I see a puddle under the car. I assumed my ghetto JBWeld oil seal around the oil return line from the turbo gave way, decided I would drain the oil as soon as the weather wasn't all shitty to avoid making too big of a mess.
