nicolemcgrgr50 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Hey guys, here the deal. Found the oil leak. Its leaking between the top of the front cover and the head. I don't have any breather hoses hooked up, so there is no vacuum in the crankcase. It only really starts leaking when the engine is being revved. I assume this is NOT normal, and i need to switch head gaskets. Not what i m looking to do. Are the ARP head studs re=usable? I only have about 20 miles on the motor and CANT afford to replace them. I am afraid to keep tightening the bolts in the front cover, id really be SOL if they stripped out the holes!!!! Anyway, i guess if there was a hose hooked up to the intake it wouldn't leak. But wouldn't this be more of a bandied fix??? Help me choose the right path guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naviathan Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 It shouldn't be leaking from there, but get the PCV system hooked up right and see if it continues to leak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
