I'm NEW to this. My 1988 Land Rover Classic is leaking something
Hey guys, I need some help.
I have a 1988 LR Classic. It's had some work done to it . But it's leaking oil, I think. I just had my timing chain changed and all my oils and fluids changed. After I am leaking some sort of oil, I believe its engine oil. It's from the front of the vehicle. It's a bit much for comfort but I check all my fluid religiously and they don't change? Any ideas???

It had work done about 1-2 weeks ago. The fluid is brown I think. I have a color defincicy. I will take a picture here in a bit of the under part of engine, as well as the fluid it's dripping

I think I'm with you Army, it looks like a high leak (PS pump or lines). Only one issue is the PS fluid in a '88 RRC should (key word "should") be ATF (red color). But man that's one wet Rover.
Patriotwac5 can you post some pics (in focus please) from the top?

That was a good way to put it. I almost said take pictures when not having a seizure
It really depends old fluid can get contaminated, wrong stuff can get added and we are looking at fluid that has run all over the place.

The front/bottom if that engine is wet because the oil is being flung by the pulleys! The "steady drip" is the end result. Pictures help that's why we asked. And then we still only get 50% worth if useful pics.
So, you either have a leak at the PS pump or the Oil Pressure Switch(you did put an oring in there right), or the Crankshaft Seal is leaking. You replaced the crankshaft seal when you did the timing chain right?
Army this one is all yours...Good Luck.
