Pretty much. When I left it on Jay Mitchell's driveway overnight, it left
one oil spot the size of a dime. Later, after I got it to Minnesota, it
left a noticible amount on my garage floor. Not enough to terrorize a
britcar owner. Since then, I have not seen much.

No, that's the Lotus. It's empty. Bad drain-plug, I think. I will get to
that Real Soon Now. Don't blame Britain. It's a French engine...
