Chasing oil getting out.
I use metric flex head rachet wrenches a lot
Somtimes interlock an open end box wrench (box end interlocked with open end of flex head rachet wrench) to gain length for that bolt out of normal reach. Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry

Chasing oil getting out. Status Update
I think I got 'em all. (Leaks)
To recap- Tightened all pan bolts. Several were loose. Some more than others. Replaced PCV elbow on drivers side. The one I removed had the lip folded. Tightened oil regulator cover bolts. The bottom one was real loose. The top one just a bit. The bolts on the cover were NOT easy to get tightened. Finally rigged up a ratcheting box end with an extension attached to it to get to the top one. I didn't have an extended reach wrench, so made do with what I had. Good to not see any signs of oil leaking. Looks nice !! z031718-1.jpg
