I have oil dripping off of starter,off of converter cover, and off of oil filter.Oil cooler is gone ,and im assuming its my intake leaking, but it doesnt seam wet.The whole underbody of my car is covered in oil.Its so bad, I can see a line of oil everytime leave the driveway.I go through a quart every few days, and i know its not burning it.What could be leaking that bad? I have wiped down everything, and it looks like its comming from both sides of the motor.After just a block or so,you can see oil comming off of the top of the starter and top of converter cover.

 

Stick your hand behind the intake and see if you get an oil covered hand.

 

Not really.Its kind of dried oil, like its been fixed befor.But im going to take a closer look and also take picks tomorrow.

 

Its really not that wet back there.But i can see that oil is dripping on starter real bad.The only thing i can think of is dipsticlk or intake.The tranny,everything is coverd in oil even after cleaning it and mabey 10 miles.

 

Similar oil leak a while back. had oil all over the bottom of the car, on the cover, oil filter, starter. Found it pretty quick though, it was the oil pan gasket in the front behind the Harmonic Balancer.

 

It might be but it looks like old oil by there.I had a opti and water pump seal leak, but fixed that already.Can a big backfire blow out the intake gasket?when i was replacing the opti, I had a plug wire crossed and it back fired through the intake and throttlebody.

 

Well im doing the intake this weekend.Im getting smoke comming through the tranny tunnel now.Ill let ya know how it goes.

 

It was the intake leaking.Changed the gasket last weekend, and a huge chunk of rtv was missing on the rear passenger side.I think it blew out when it backfired on me after I put the opti on and had a few wires crossed.
