i have a bad oil leak, need help!
i fired up my motor and i have a pretty serious oil leak, it almost looks like its coming from between the block and bellhousing above the oil filter. what oil plugs are in the area that could possibly be missing?? im lost. could it possibly be the rear main seal? its not the oil pressure sensor
please help me asap!! need this car on the road soon! car gets 60 psi oil pressure when cranking |
lt1 ?
and what did you remove/do ? |
If I had to guess on an LT1, its real common for the back of the intake to leak oil. I just removed my Intake last month and resealed it because I had the same problem
|
What year and what kind of car?
|
1996 trans am, lt1
found the leak.. it wasnt the intake http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...-23_204822.jpg that plug thats halfway covered by the head is filling up with oil and leaking down on everything. i assume i should just pull the plug and put new thread sealer and put it back in? |
Yeah that should do it.

pulled the plug out, it has a very small hole drilled through it , i believe its suppose to go under the timing cover to oil the timing chain.
the bolts are felpro. not sure if theyre torque to yield or not, ill just buy new bolts and gaskets, no sense in cheaping out this far into the build |
