90 200tqa oil loss again what the

[Ron Wainwright]

  Listers,

  I posted a few weeks ago about an oil loss with my
new to me 90 200,
 it had a Valvoline oil filter and oil I changed it
with a Mann filter and Mobil 1 synth 15/50W and a few
day's into the fresh oil and filter I noticed oil
dripping from the oil pump so before Phill left he
suggested that the oil pump bolts had worked there way
free a bit and that was the case tightened the 3 bolts
I could see and reach after that I didn't notice any
oil drippin from there I checked every day but just
yesterday while driving and figuring out why I'm not
getting full boost the oil warning light came on the
warning display checked the oil and found no oil on
the dip stick so I had to add  another quart I've
added 2 1/2 quarts since I changed the oil and filter
I'm at a loss no oil commin from anywhere I can notice
  Brett mentioned that maybe my crank seal was shot
which would mean a timing belt job it's just that I'de
like to know what others have gone through before I
start a timing belt job to find out that the seal is
shot on the flywheel side any listers had a
mysteriouse oil loss and lived to tell about it any
info would be great.
Thanks
Ron
