Horrible pictures, but take note of the tiny if blurry drainage path for oil. It's like they knew shit would leak.

All hail the decently mighty B212. Progress made on the #Saab and hopefully no more oil leaks?

-gas leak happened and fixed itself
-oil leak continues
-coolant leak continues - I have commissioned a new leak detection system.
Update 3 on the #Saab 900. I have found out where the coolant is disappearing off to. Turns out it's leaking out. The oil leak has been fixed using heavier weight oil... that being said maybe the old cardboard I'm using is too dirty for me to tell anymore?
Overall making good progress!

-Redo the seats
-fix the cracked dashboard
-clean out hvac and fix lights in dashboard
-clean the convertible top
-adjust headlights/fix grill
-try and give up on fixing that oil leak
So it begins. Seats are out. Follow me for more suffering and a final update in 4 years when I give up.
