Thanks "Dinomartino'! 900 1994

I had posted a messege about what to do for a car sitting for about 18 months before starting it. Well it had been down because the turbo (original)died on me, I tried the used turbo thing but couldn't get the exhauts flanges to fit so frustrated I waited and was blessed with the cash for a new one.

I followed your points for getting it ready with the mystery oil and all, turned the key once, twice and boom baby almost purring. Let it run for a few and she setteled down to purring.

Now I have located an oil leakcoming from the point where the return tube (I think)goes back into the case just above the oil pan.
My question is did I perhaps damage an o-ring of some sort or something? And is there some sort of heat resistant sealant or puddy that I maybe able to put around it?

Thanks again for the help,

Ron
