Recommended Posts

I recently have got my head gaskets done in the summer but recently the car was pouring oil from the front of the side of the motor where the front value cover is. i thought i was the oil pump drive replaced it and it still doing it. is there freeze plugs on the block or on the heads? if the car still sitting where it shut off at i'll get it and hopefully fix it. Oddly a few months before that the car was knocking and i seen no oil leaks or nothing. Maybe the head gaskets went bad again?

Have you tried replacing your front valve cover gasket?

so over time them things can mess up? ok.. so what will explain the engine knocking on its own.(before the oil leak) do oil pumps fade in and out over time?

so the oil will pour out like that when a value cover gasket is messed up? i pouring out like there is a hole somewhere. About a mile or so the oil light will come on.
