Oil Leak - 5KCSTQ
Just another annoying problem with the old 5KCSTQ. While looking
over the right strut housing, preparing to replace the right wheel
bearing, I noticed that I have an oil leak on the right side of
the engine just below the front edge of the valve cover. At first
I thought it was the valve cover leaking but it appears to be
wetter near the interface of the head and the block. Is there an
oil passage in the head near the front right corner that could be
leaking from the head gasket? Hope not, but if there is can
retorquing the head possibly help? Any other thoughts on what
could be leaking?
Regards...
