OMP issues
This past weekend I was participating in a track event and noticed some minor oil.... well after fishing around a bit it seems like there is some oil coming from the oil metering pump (not a ton of oil but a drips)... I was wondering if any of you have noticed that after pushing the car at an event? If so how did you fix it? etc...
I will be getting under the car this weekend to try and narrow down the problem. I did notice that it doesn't leak under daily driving...

Check the front cover near the bottom of the eccentric shaft...it tends to spin up onto the OMP area and below. The OMP will usually leak just between itself and the housing... You might want to clean it off and see whether it leaks normal driving...it likely won't....and unless it is a lot more than mine was, it won't be a problem on the track

The OMP is not covered underwaranty because it considered an external component of the engine. I told him that this is a preventative measure so the motor did not have to be replaced. He then told me that the engine would be evaluated to determine the cause of failure. BTW the OMP was suppose to run 1500 bucks to replace I told him no thank you.
