Hi Folks, Hello to Everyone on the forum,
I,m A newcomer,and last week bought a 1993 Celica 2.0l GT,which by the way is superb in Black,A few jobs need doing but my main concern is,there is a oil leak on the front right of the engine,it starts lower down from the rocker cover gasket,looks like from the head gasket I,ve been told,there is no water in the oil and no oil in the water and yet the oil leak was put on the advisory note on its last MOT which was last September 5000 miles ago,the engine otherwise is running quiet ,no rattles or knocks ,it has done 123.000 and the cambelt was changed at 116.000,Can anybody tell me if this is a head gasket replacement and can anybody tell me what the average cost of doing it would be,I,m not a mechanic Best Regards to you all bobh This post has been edited by bobh: Jun 11, 2011 - 4:56 AM |
