    My old Plow truck started up fine after sitting since April, but proceeded to oil down the driveway after about 5 minutes of running. Appears to be coming out down behind the oil filter/sending unit area. Still had lots of oil pressure and lost about a quart before I got it shut down in the yard. Totally soaked the front axle and crossmember area as well as some of the steering linkage.

    Any ideas? Not the easiest place to work, especially for an old fart with arthritis. Think I'll have it towed in or get out the 12 gauge and put it out of its misery.
