cam tower bolt leak
I've found an oil leak coming from the middle of one of those big hex bolts/inserts (about 1" across, 6 of them in the top of the tower). The oil is weeping into the hex shaped hole.
Should I try to torque it up to stop the leak or do these affect something underneath? Is there a gasket on these inserts? I had a new cam gasket installed 3 months ago by a mechanic.
Its on an 87 944 turbo
Thanks,
Dave
