Since I bought this car, I cleaned then replaced by flame trap. I also has all three front seals replaced, but the car is still leaking oil - now from the oil pan gasket (or "still" from the gasket). I'll get that gasket replaced, but I'm wondering if this is coincidence/poor maintenance on the part of the last owner, or if I've got excess pressure blowing my seals and gaskets? Last time this happened (my 1990 740) the flame trap popped out and then my rear main seal blew out. But so far, no trouble from the flame trap...
