[Healeys] massive oil leak

[i erbs]

Spray break cleaner all over an d clean up the oil. Fill your block, starts
the car, once any pressure shows on your gauge, turn it off. Check for
leaks.
I'll bet it's the filter. If canister type, the seal ring must have
slipped, if spin on conversion, make sure you put a thin coat of oil on the
seal and tighten
