9-5 SE v6 '00
I just replaced valve cover gaskets in an attempt to get rid of visual smoke coming from my engine bay. It did help, but I still have smoke coming from underneath the front heat shield. It doesn't smell too bad. I am pretty sure it is oil.. don't know what could be burning oil there. I'm so confused..
Anyway, I have been driving with water as opposed to coolant for the past 30 miles or so. I just replaced the oil cooler so I am doing this to flush the system. There is water leaking down directly onto the exhaust. it leaks pretty good cold, and slows down as it comes to normal tempurature. It is not the CBV, but I'm not sure what else would be leaking water there? I would appreciate any advice. I am a whit's end trying to find out what's going on with my engine.
