  • Please help...

    I am about to order gaskets for my 94 3.4 but dont know which ones to get. I know its hard to tell without looking at the engine but its..there is oil all over the front and under the engine. It drips about a half dollar to baseball size over night. There is also oil all on the inside of the hood. I was going to order valve cover gaskets and the oil pan gasket, but would like to know what else would be a good bet to order. The camaro has 139,653 miles on it. Thanks for the help.

    all of them...my car with about 100k i had to do all of them. Save your self the time, money, headaces and do them all at one time.. oil pan gasket, valve cover gaskets, rear main seal. And since you have the transsmission out of the car go ahead a put a new rear main seal in it also.... HAVE FUN!

            you dont have to take the engine out. but you do need to remove the tranny, thats why i said since you have it out, you can put a new seal in the rear of it also. it only takes about 15 seconds to do.

              awesome...can I do this with a jack and some stands...it is just lifting up the car to drop the tranny out? Can I get to the rest of the gaskets with the engine in??

                Umm, basicly yes, but i took my car to my buddys shop and used his lift and tranny jack. The tranny is heavy, so dont blame me if you crush your self..lol. besides you would have to really jack your car up to lower the transmission enough to get to the rear enine seal. ;)

                      i used carb cleaner. throttle body cleaner was too weak.
