The gasket from the bottom timing belt cover is stilling out like an ear. There's no oil there in that section though right? its kinda weird, and I don't know a whole lot yet but any advice? the pictures below. Thanks! -------------------- ------------------------------------------------ 808CELICA2DAMAX "May the Boost be with you..."

I changed the valve cover gasket earlier cause I thought it was coming out the back. But i found out the spark plug bolts were screwed on good but I still changed it and resealed it. I don't see any major oil on the back of the valve cover, but I did see a VERY small spec of oil on the edge that was fresh and wet. It only drips when I turn the engine on. But even when I do that I don't see anything coming out the back of the valve cover nor the spark plug holes. QUOTE (Dragondog @ Mar 16, 2009 - 3:02 AM) i too had an oil leak on the 5s not sure from were was on intake manifold side tho...thought it might be valve cover right in middle oil every were but nice clean shiny spot on middle of head comin from valve cover check ur pwr stering it mite be commin from that.... The power steerings in tact and not leaking. its driving me nutz. I still need to get that gasket changed tho too right? -------------------- ------------------------------------------------ 808CELICA2DAMAX "May the Boost be with you..."
