ps: giantomatto, what is a spark lead?
|
Yes, well anyway... JZ engines are known to leak around the cam cover gaskets as the bolts can work their way loose over time. Note this is NOT the same as a head gasket, and fixing it is as simple as tightening the bolts properly. My 2JZ was leaking all over the place when I got it, turns out the bolts were finger tight!
And it's also interesting to note tha oil leaking from this location can end up drowning the spark plugs... and this can lead to ignition problems. My Celica used to periodically develop a miss for this very reason... I had to remove the spark plug, let the oil drain away, and then it was all good again.
