ok so after discovering my headgasket is leaking...again...I took my head apart and retourqed the head studs hoping to have a quick fix. Well it didnt help, and now after doing so, im leaking oil from my cams on the side of my cam gears. I never put sealant on the cams seals on that side before, and never had a problem. But on reassembling the head, i snapped on the 10mm bolt one on the cam caps, the one closest to the cam gear. Is this why im leaking oil now? This is such a headache now and I really dont ahve time to work on my car.

 

well i ripped it apart again today and replaced the broken bolt. sealed everything back up with ultra gray and started it once just to make sure the timing was right. only ran it for liek 30 seconds then shut it off to let it sit overnight and seal up. hopefully this fixes the cam leak, ill replace the headgasket next weekend hopefully.

 

Did you replace the cam seals?

 

nah, being in college working part time, and then having my tools stolen has really set me back. i just pulled the head apart and used ultra gray and made sure to torque everything to spec.

 

should seal up fine
