    Re: OMG Oil on block from head gasket!

    I used 2 cans of engine degreaser on her saturday night
    in preperation for the tranny i am putting in tomorrow
    I just adjusted the valves and re-sealed the fuck outta the valve cover

    I drove it to orange county and back sat. night

    then today I noticed more wet oil on my engine tag and when I run my finger
    under teh distributor and valve cover it stays clean.

    I had 3 different friends shops look at it
    and they all thought what i did

    from what i hear its pretty rare to leak frum there
    (nothing getting in the cooling system either)

    Many members on 3geez do not trust mechanics, me being one of them. I would do it myself.

    amazing but true, I don't and I am an automotive technician... Only a few people I trust working on my stuff besides me.

    warrentys like that, you still stand a good chance of a bill for items "not covered"

    It is not that an uncommon area for oil leak, on any Honda engine as far as I know

    The head may need retorqued, also make sure there isnt a piece of something under the valve cover. Those little foam seals on oil bottles have been known to come out and get in there, anything the size of a dime could block oil return holes.
