SmokesGTP Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 I noticed the other day that my car seems to be leaking more oil than ever. I know I have the dist. O-ring leak and it leaks a good amount, but I have noticed another leak from near the front of the car. The plug wires are wet near where they connect to the coils. Could this be a headgasket problem? Perhaps intake gaskets? I don't know but this car is pissing me off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
test4echo Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 Humm.... Is your oil filter tight? I know you said you plug wires were wet as well, which are above the filter. I know my filter was leaking AFTER i fixed my o-ring leak. Blow back from wind and driving caused oil to get all over everything. Even my plug wires had oil on them. I'd replace the filter or at least tighten it. See if it goes away. Then again I have a 3.4L. test, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlassdude96 Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 sounds like valve covers are leaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby1870 Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 sounds like valve covers are leaking that was my guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
test4echo Posted July 11, 2004 Report Share Posted July 11, 2004 Could be valves. Check the filter anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokesGTP Posted July 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Yeah I'll check the filter, I knew the valve covers were leaking a tiny amount, I mean whos aren't honestly? I just hoped it wasn't something more serious. It doesn't seem to leak very much so you guys are probly right. I can replace those myself, well, maybe not the back one.
