  • oil on top to engine

    Ok, a few months back i replaced my valave cover gaskets because oil was dripping on to my drive way. Today i was just looking around at my car and it has an oil puddle sitting on top to the engine. Its location is on the drivers side just above the middle fuel injector very near the center of the engine. Its a pretty large puddle sitting in one of the low laying areas. Any idea what would cause this? I really dont think its my new valve cover gasket because from what i can see its totally dry. Cant wait to see what happens next.

    wipe up the oil and run it and see if you can see the leak. oil doesnt appear from outer space, and if its puddling up like that, it'll be alot easier to find than if it were drippin down on the driveway.

        guy at pepboys said it sounded like intake manifold gasket. But he didnt even look at it.
