RichK, give me a hand with oil-leaking turbo line. 850 1996

Hello again Rich,

Crawling under my 'new' '96 Turbo Wagon, I noticed the dreaded oil leak. Not extremely bad, but there is a fair amount of oil on the engine oil pan, lines, etc. I saw your post from 9-5-99 regarding a leak on a '94 850. You mentioned replacing a sealing ring and gasket needing replaced. Do you think this would be the same case with my car? Kind of tough to tell exactly where the leak is until I get a chance to clean it up, but it does seem like it's coming from that area.

BTW, replaced the t-stat to cure the lack of heat problem per your suggestion. Temp gauge is perfect now, but passenger side blows cool air. Problem with the passenger side temp control? I read a post about a temp sensor above the glove box. Any other thoughts?

As always, thanks for your help.
