Hello guys. I have a 94 GS300 and picked it up some time ago. Well ive been working on it here and there cleaning it up and making it nice. It still has a way to go, but I was able to get it going. Anyway, I was driving it a couple of days ago, and on an inclined hill the oil indicator light came on. I pulled in to the first autozone I found and opened the hood. I found that there was oil leaking from what look like the whole head or vaulve covers, but I couldnt tell. The car had about 1/4 oilin it, so I bought some and topped it off. The next they was my day off, so I tryed to figure out what was the problem. The vaulve cover bolts were really really loose (if this common?) So I tightened them and sprayed some engine degreaser on the engine. It cleaned it up and looked good, but the next day its still leaking AGAIN and I cant find were its coming from. ANY SUGGESTIONS??? Anybody in my area( Monterey Park) that knows what there doing? that can help me out?? I know how to install alarms & sounds, maybee we can trade some work or something I am not a mechanic ( i try) but thats not my thing Any comments would be appreciated guys. Ive found a lot of great IDEAS here on CL. THANKS GUYS

 

Replacing the valve cover gaskets should do the trick. It may be overwhelming at first when you see the intake routing over the head. Take your time, be organized and you'll have no problem replacing them.

 

I have the same problem. going to replace my gasket next oil change. its gunna be a pain in the ***.

 

just did mine yesterday all dry and clean ;ike 3 rotor said take your time
