The engine is a mid '90s JDM GSR, unknown miles, but runs decent. I drove the car with the hood off ("I have a mullet" style) and ran the car out in the first few gears. I slowed down and noticed some oil on my windshield, pulled over, and checked out what was going on. It's from the driver's side, front of the motor. I can't tell where it's coming from as it will drip down but also get blown upwards. I've tried cleaning off the motor untill it's spotless to see where the oil is leaking from, but I still can't tell. Anyone have some ideas of what I could look for? If it matters, my upper timing cover is off, but I haven't seen any oil from that side of the motor; it's also getting oil on the bottom of the hood, while I'm not being a redneck. If anymore info is needed, just ask.
Thanks in advance!

 

Could it be ur cam seals??? Thats the only thing i can think of getting that much speed to go on ur wind sheild and hood..?? Check that out.

Yes I know he said driver side... Do u know there are seals around cams on both sides? And with the cams slings the oil on the windsheild. Seen this before.

 

yea i kno but he said he had the timing cover off but i assume the cam cover of the vc is still on so i dont see how it flick outside of that. .but if uve seen it then thurr it is. .i jus see the dist side seals leak alot mo so. .

 

Just depends if his vc is cut or if its still covers the how cam gears.

I should've mentioned my valve cover is NOT cut, so it's not on the belt, or that side of the motor for that case. I had someone local look at it, said it might be from a stripped valve cover nut not tightening down all the way.

We'll see.

On a good note, ran a 13.5 friday night

 

remove all covers, clean thoroughly, start motor, withing 10 seconds oil will be flowing around and u should be abel to find leak.

Like I said, I'm 90% sure it only leaks when the RPMs go high

 

what kind of pcv system are you running? if its clogged that wwould explain only doing it at high rpms....im with everyone else though clean it good and let it run until it shows itself on the ground sometimes at can take up to an hour....they do make a UV dye that can help you figure it out

 

where to get that dye and is it safe?
