Not mine. And mine sat in winter hibernation for 7 months this year. Just got it out 2 weeks ago. Been doing this since 2006.

Nor mine and it too is winter stored. If it leaks, you should fix the leak.

My car has never leaked except at a cam cover after an indy had to remove both in order to fix the valves they bent. I took it to them with 75000mi on it (10 yrs. old) to get the LN ceramic bearing installed . They said it had never been apart before and was bone dry. I removed trans last month in order to repair the clutch problem (1.5 yr after they installed and 8000 mi.-problem started at 3000 mi.--loose pressure plate bolts (2) and subsequent damage to release bearing and the crank sensor bolt was about to fall out - oops forgot to tighten that too!@ $100/ hr).

I'd like to emphasize 2 points here:

(1) INDY"S ARE DANGEROUS
(2) I FEEL AT PEACE WITH LN'S SUPER CERAMIC BEARING NOW IN MY ENGINE
