i have a 97 ek with a frank motor (b20b block with b18c head). there is a horrible oil leak coming from around the oil filter, when i give it gas, it spews out. i just got this car two days ago and the guy said he never had this problem. i drove it for about 10 miles and then parked and had this problem. it WILL start and i CAN drive it but need to konw whats up.

thanks,
steve

no gasket where the oil filter is at?

i really havent been able to take off the intake manifold to get a good look. but there is a pool of oil just under the oil filter. kinda dry everywhere else around the filter.

If you haven't done anything out of the ordinary, I'd say he wasn't being honest with you. Is the oil filter on tight?

i cant move it by hand....but didnt have time to take proper tools out there. just frustrated haha i have an EF with a couple leaks too.
