Hi Folks
I live in Kent, Have 88 2L 16v GLS Auto (Black- looks cool) with LPG conversion, 145k owned 6 months.
Spent money on oil and water leaks-  Head skim/gasket, cambelt new radiator.
Runs well, performance OK after you get used to it, at first it seems very underpowered but sport mode and driving technique help.
and yes it is still leaking, only under pressure , after a run 3-4 drips of engine oil every time from the 2 lugs on bottom of torque converter ( the lowest point). I would really appreciate some suggestions here.
But hey what a great car for the cash. and this website puts other owners sites to shame its utterly amazing !
(Have not used forums before not sure where this will end up)

He means 98!!

Also check the breathers and the cam cover gasket - look for oil around the plug wells
