With this 2.3ltr I've had problems with MAD oil in my spark plug wells.The car smokes sometimes at crazy times.Has anyone ever had this problem and did it smoke and what was your cure? I tried to get a mad tite JDM valve cover but some asshat from Chrome2Go is attempting to screw me.I'll post up that story after i get this fixed

Something tells me that it's not from an oil filler cap gasket. Todd has been on this site for quite a while and knows of these issues.
I would definately ponder to guess it being the valve cover gasket. Probably the spark plug gaskets. Or it could be a bad valve cover. -------------------- -The original (member) 007. Stop looking at me Spy!!
