sugisan Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Hi guys, Some oil is leaking from the back side of the engine (firewall side) on my 1975 280z. I think it's the head gasket, but wanted to get some thoughts before I did anything. Here's a pic. It's right above the starter and it looks like oil is leaking into the starter and causing it to fail. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewZed Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Are you sure that's oil? It looks like coolant, mixed with stopleak. That's where the big passage is from block to head. I had a leak there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugisan Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Consistency was more like oil, but you might be right. What did you do to fix the leak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
