You, sir are correct. IMS-mania has leeched into my head -- it was just the rear main seal leaking.

19" rims on a 1997 is bad news. They reinforced the chassis later because of cracking from the stress from oversize wheels. I think the update was in 1998, but someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for this, Spinnaker. Not something I want to mess around with. I'll add it to my list of things to watch out for in the future.

Cheers again guys. Your help has been much appreciated! :cheers:
