Hi Guys,
New Viper owner here. I could have posted this in the tech section, but thought I'd get more response here.
I just bought a “track ready” ’96 that needs a little TLC before trusting my life to it at speed. It is leaking oil from the pressure relief valve on the Accusump. There are occasional squirts of oil that eventually leave the underside of the hood and surrounding areas covered w/ oil. The sump is controlled w/ an electric valve. The pressure is 70 psi. I bled it down to 20 psi, but it went right back to 70 when I started the car.
Does anyone have any ideas on solving this oil leak? Is there a way to bleed an accusump w/o making such a mess?
Thanks
