Just put the head on 500 miles ago but 200 miles ago I started getting an oil leak down by the down pipe.

I thought my turbo oil line was leaking, so after 3 hours of pulling it all apart, it is dry. I have oil on the oil filter housing and oil cooler but I changed gaskets to both of them when I put the head on 500 miles ago.

My mechanic son came over and says its the valve cover. I put on a new gasket on the valvecover when I put it back together. I did put some rtv in the two corners bt the fuel pump and vacuum pump. I checked the bolts and some are looser than when I installed it.

Is there anything that I should do other than tighten the bolts?

 

Thats about it, change the gasket and the tube gaskets near the spark plugs. It comes with the sets. If the valve cover leaks oil from the center and goes around the trim near the spark plugs then it might have a hairline crack in the center and cause a code down the road. But if no leaks then you are fine.

 

I just ordered a new one from you.
