Where can the mark be. Mine is right at the grid where it is supposed to be when hot.. Its a little above cold. The engine oil temp was 140 degrees. Had some little droplets on bottom of pan. Pan is new with recommended high end gasket, dont remember the name but it was around 12 bucks, LOL.

I'd run it hot and check it at idle on a level surface. I think you're fine, but if you think you are over suck a little out.

that fluid expands as it gets hot, IIRC... so get it up to op temp.
How you been??? |

Hey, Been living the life as a contractor, LOL. I will run it hot and see what happens. I think because it sat for so long it just leaked. |

It shouldn't really leak from sitting a short period. I guess if it sits really long and seals are dried out/bad it will leak. The pan gasket shouldn't leak. You might have fluid coming from the dipstick tube grommet, vss, etc.

I took the best pics I could of above the pan. I cant see any fluid coming out of dipstick tube. I saw some on the shifter linkage. None on the servo. I cant physically see the TV cable area. But, I will next time I get under.
