I found that the engine oil around 80% full to maximum, and the coolant bottle is still half full.https://picasaweb.google.com/elmereng/SunfireOilStains1July2011?authkey=Gv1sRgCKzslsuo__3y5wE#
Thanks2. Says: oil pans are notorious to rust out and leak on sunfires. it might just be a gasket though.
Good way to check top up all your fluids. Which ever one is leaking should be down and If your oil was at max and now 80 then look into an oil pan problem
Placing cardboard under the problem area can help pin point exactly where it is leaking and saves a clean up of the fluids on your garage floor.
If its an oil pan its not hard to replace yourself. your just drain all the oil, remove the half a million bolts holding it on to the engine and just pry it off. I would suggest buying a new one instead of trying to repair the original one. Tag: Please guess from photos what causes these 2 oil stains on garage floor?
