Mine leaked oil. :(
Was running it with a chrome box, and I can't remember now if it went before or after the chrome box. I'd have to dig out my log notes. The windings were still intact, so it didn't die, it was just seeping. Smelled it first.
IIRC the instructions were to mount it on it's side, which is what I did, in about 2004, on the apron, with a really long coil-wire,lol. Yeah it's ugly, but if someone comes to steal it, he better bring a long wire.
