Small Oil Leak
Hey guys,
Well, I have continued my search to try to find my small oil leak. I did a little more searching under the rig today, and it seems that the oil is coming from either the exhaust manifold gasket or the valve cover gasket. I can't really pinpoint it. I put some of the Bearin' Seal in my rig the other day, but other than the mandatory 20 min. of driving right when you put it it, I haven't been able to drive it much. Anyway, just thought I would give you a small update, and will update more after the weekend of more driving. Take care fellas-

Corey,
That is what I thought also, but I wasn't completely sure. Unfortunately, I can't do that with the tools I have here at school. Are the bolts tough to get to? If not, I may be able to borrow some tools from a buddy. I accidently left my travel tool box at home. Anyway, let me know what you think. Thanks-
Cody

Oh boy, I have not even really looked at my engine to see if one can get too the bolts or not.

Gone are the good old days like with a 327 Chev engine where you could get to all of the bolts in a few seconds and tighten them down.
I should try and dig up some old pics of that engine I had in my Chevelle sometime.
