please help im scared to death:'(

CyFi · 03-22-2006, 09:11 PM

ok i really need your help. i went to mess with my ISC a little to get it working, i sprayed some carb cleaner inside the hole in the TB that goes to the ics, put the 02 sensor back in that i inspected, started it up, everything was normal, high idle. then the rpms start to fluctuate really badly and over and over and i turn the car off, look and see oil everywhere on the tranny, i go under and oil is dripping off the tranny like mad, i have no idea what this is ive never had this before. I dont see coolant so i dont think its a head gasket, if it is im royally ____ed. I just replaced my valve cover gasket and havent had any problems til now, i changed it like less than 50 miles ago. dont think its the distributor as it would all of a sudden break loose and have oil spewing out, im afraid to start the car again until i know exactly whats wrong. Please help me figure out where this is all coming from.

How about a curved-jawed Vise Grips?

CyFi · 03-25-2006, 12:18 PM

i got it all fixed up, its a compression fitting and i didnt need to get the screw out of the block, just the other part that holds the copper tube in, i replaced the compression nut thing and BAM perfect, no leak. turns out the whole capper tube broke entirely inside, thats why oil was just shooting out.
