Hey guys, new here. So, today I was mowing with the old 318 and the oil light came on. I shut it down, checked the oil, it was in the safe range. I checked the oil pressure switch, it was actually cracked at the plastic part. I got a new one, installed it. Same problem, oil light is on. I started looking for leaks while it was running and saw a stream of oil in the very small area between the oil filter housing and the head. I tightened the bolts on the housing, still have a stream. My question is, what to do from here? Best case the housing gasket is leaking??? Worst case a head gasket leak??? It's so hard to tell where it's coming from. If it is a head gasket, how hard is that? The motor is old and tired. Thanks.
