Vehicle: 1987 Range Rover, 107,000 miles
Problem: Oil is leaking in the area of the intake manifold gasket,
and pooling on the pan section of the gasket between the
heads. The oil then runs off the back of the block.
The oil may be a mix of fluids but appears to have a
uniform consistency. I have tightened the valve covers
and retorqued the fore and aft manifold gasket clamps
but that has had little effect.
Request: Any information or similar experiences. Is this a common
problem with this engine considering the mileage? I would like
to get a good handle on the problem before I pull the fuel
system and manifold off, if required.
Thanks
