Decided to compress a front strut before I even put anything on it, a big ring of oil was left on the strut rod, honestly I don't know if it's because its brand new or because it's blown. Haven't touched the strut rod on it. The rod goes back out like normal. IDK.

Edit: I have lost a top hat to chassis nut(M8x1.25 flange nut), engine ate it. Took off the engine plates and did not find it. I have looked all around the engine bay. So frustrated, I am done for today.
