Oil leak?? Head gasget??? I left to motor running, pulled the oil dip stick tube, and oil was actually coming out of the top of the dip stick tube.. about 2-3 oz....
there was only 5 1/2 quarts in there from the oil change I did at 600 miles... any way the oil pressure seemed a little higher than normal at around 45 at idle 65ish at 3-4k rpms...
I got home, let it sit for a few hours , came back out and there was a small oil leak on the floor. So I start to invesitigate, start to pull things off one by one... I checked the rear seal first by sticking my finger in the little srevice port in the tranny, it was dry.. not the rear seal... I look at the front of the motor, no leak... no leak from the top of the motor.... It has to be coming off the rear the passenger side head..... and it's not coming from the valve cover...
any ideas??
