i check the oil once in a while becuase i know our engines are prone to oil leaking. but it got to a point where i am starting to worry. everyday there would be probably a good eigth cup of oil on the floor. i started looking around the oil pan to see if i scraped the crap out of it but no problem and all the screws are tight on it. the oil plug is tight and there is a new washer seal. then i notice the back of my engine closes to the firewall is shoaked in oil and it looks like it starts all the way up from the intake manifold!! imma pull the intake manifold off hopefully today and hope that it is nothing bad. but anybody got any ideas on what it is.?

My car drips oil too, maybe like two table spoons a day or so, but I don't know what's causing it. I had the Oil pan gasket replaced, I've checked some other things, but I'm still not sure. It dripped a while onto my skid plate. Could the leak now just be the oil on the skid plate coming out? I'm curious.
and is it safe to pop your hood and spray your engine and what not down with a hose? I have the sock airbox so the filter is covered..... someone message me and let me know. thanks! |
