Hi,

Where did the oil leak from? Also, when you say it won't crank, do you mean the starter won't turn the engine, or do you mean it does turn but doesn't start?

Let me know as much as you can so I can better help you. I just need a little more information.

Let me know. Also, feel free to let me know if you have questions.

Take care,

Joe
