Oil leak
« on: March 30, 2012, 12:14:31 PM »
I have tracked down a slight oil leak.

It is seeping out of the side of the timing case.

Is this caused only by the gasket on the timing cover going bad? Or could there be something behind the timing cover leaking oil that I should be worried about or looking for?

I plan on checking the timing gears and such.

yeah, the gasket is seeping.   oil is behind the cover to lubricate the chain, guides, etc.
