head gasket??

[legacy95]

recently i noticed an oil leak by the left head i dont know if its the head or the valve cover but i degeased it and looks like there is oil seeping from the head gasket...i thought coolant was the most possible to leak from there...has anyone else had the same problem?

There is the possibility of oil leaking from the head gasket.

I think there is a better chance that the oil is comming from something else than from the head gasket. Clean it very well and check back.

are you spouting white smoke from your tailpipe? does your coolant spew chocolate milk? are you overheating? those are the signs of failing head gaskets. Check your valve cover gaskets.

Bad headgaskets would allow oil into the coolant, it's valve covers.

my passenger vale cover gasket leaks too... it's getting fixed this winter.

cool ya i didnt relly know its just really getting wet near the head it self but there is a small bit on the valve cover

yeah definatly not something to ignore, but there's worse, just keep an eye on your oil level, especially if you drive like i do :twisted: .
