Newbie says Hello

[Diamss]

Hi everyone. Picked up my Cougar last night and going over it again today
Yr 1999, Silver, v6, no MODs that I am aware of... Great drive on pick up last night so I'm initially happy with the car
Couple of points may need attention but should be fine; tracking as it pulls to the left, nail in tyre, possible oil leak (?).
Trying to change the headlight bulb at the moment.

Will post a couple of pics later after it's cleaned up!
Jon

Welcome Warlock!
(Diamss is an old Friend of mine and I took for a drive in mine when he came to stay, although I am disappointed he's not registered as Warlock here!)

Welcome Jon!

Most of the V6es leak oil from somewhere. Once you've worked out where it's coming from, we should be able to advise whether it's "normal" or not.
