Decided to do the timing and balancer belt on my Mitsubish Showgun last weekend, local mechanics said it was simple task compared to the Fiat 20 v I did last summer. To cut a long story short it was a real pain but eventually got it done. While I was under checking front axle etc for winter I spotted a slight oil, dried it off and drove the car for a week. Checked it today to find it was still leaking, eventually found corrosion on the oil pan. The oil pan screwws were very difficult to get at but eventually I got them all out. Oil pan stuck solid with sealent, damaged the corner leavering it off. Tried to get it out of its space to find tie rod, anti roll bar and steering rod needed to come off. After much cursing and frustration I eventually got it out but its now dark and the rains on. Managed to weld the hole and testing it on the bench, have filled it up with diesel to check for leaks before re-fitting. I think I will check price and availablity of a new one tommorow just in case. Anyway hope you guys had a better time. Just thought I would post a few nice pictures of local Scottish landscape anyway. Bill
