aight heres my problem i got under the ole supra to change the oil the day before yesterday and i seem to to have a slight leak at look to be coming from the oil filter....well after changing the the oil.....everything seem to be running fine until my oil pressure seem to drop and the car began to bogged down got it home an checked it out...i looked under the car....my intercooler hose had oil pooling on it, in and out oil cooling lines were soaked in oil.....oil spray patterens on the driver and passenger side of the underbody, oil coat on the oil pan, and what bit leaked back onto the transmission....but what baffled me even more is the oil made it no higher than the bottom of the oil filter....i need some help any ideas what may have caused a leak that large.....?...i think it may be time to change the oil pan gasket or a damn serious leak in my in and out oil cooling lines...but im wide open for suggestions

clean all of the residue off, fill the car with oil again, and start the car. crawl under the car and just wait. it works for me.

Probably a double gasket on the filter. Make sure the old gasket didnt stick to the block when you replaced the filter, and then got another one put on top of it when you put on the new filter! :icon_bigg

With that much oil, I'm going out on a limb and saying that it must be a high pressure line - which pretty much limits you to the oil filter seal, the oil cooler lines, or the turbo feed line.

^ lol, I would also look at the oil cooler lines as well. Replace those 2 lines and see what happens.

In most cases oil leaks from the oil cooler housing that bolts to the block.
Just get a a relocation kit and :aigo: NO MORE OIL LEAKS!!!
