tell me about it. I was laying there under my car about to start freaking out because i was afraid I was going to have to yank my engine, when I just happened to look thru one of the holes on the cam gear and seen bare threads showing. I knew instantly that was it. apparently the seal blew out and caused the bolts to become loose. I loctited those bitches good this time (thought I did that the first time around?)
