if my 2 and 3 cylinder has oil in it like not because of a blown ring it has plenty of oil. i had an accident and ran out of coolant drive a lil over heats n turn it off and drive again but not to much as long as i get to my destination, is it because the oil gets hot n boils? blown gasket? so i'd have to get it machined?

nope its very simple, just go to autozone (or whatever you prefer) get 4 of the seals. they go in the valve cover. around each spark plug hole.

I do realize how old this post is, but I hope this poor guy didn’t scratch his head too long trying to figure out why fixing his oil leak didn’t make it stop overheating. Please don’t skim read an honest question if you are legitimately trying to help someone... Just a suggestion
