[QUOTE="illadvisedSnake, post: 3744866, member: 17750"] Well after putting on a few thousand miles, I noticed the oil level in my whipple was below the sight glass... I filled it with the small amount of oil I had left over and it put the oil right to the bottom of the window... and I have noticed a small amount of something that could be spraying on the underside of my hood, it looks like its spray from off the belt because its like two marks the width of a belt. Anyways, I called whipple and they said that sometimes it can take a little bit for the seal to "take", he went on to explain to me how they put the seal on a jig for 5 minutes before they assembly it and how the seal has memory and what not... so he is overnighting me a bottle of oil, said fill it back to half way up, then keep an eye on it... if I have to keep filling it then he said he'll keep sending me oil untill I can get a chance to take it off and send it in... said 1 day turn around time... hopefully it doesn't have to come to that... I haven't even unleashed the beast yet :eek: I was reading in the manual and it said some oil loss is normal... he said they have had 2 seals not take or go bad out of about a run of 1000 units [/QUOTE]
