It's funny how similar our car problems are at the moment. I am chasing down fluid leaks and just cleaned engine block areas showing leakage so I can get a better read on where oil seems to be coming from. I am suspicious of the dizzy's o-ring seal. Hahaha! Synchronicity.
Good luck. Hang in there.

I remember seeing that post, what is it called exactly? I just got paid today so I'm gonna go ahead and do that... Also, the dizzy o'ring took me like 45 mins to change and that's with taking 2 breaks due to pain. I was amazed on how easy it was to do it myself. If you haven't done it, you might as well just do it so it doesn't start leaking in the future.
