dhewitt Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Sort of a continuation of an old thread (http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=85699), but the thread topic no longer matches the material... so here goes. I had discovered some oil/grease leaking from somewhere near the driver's side tie rod boot, just below and behind the axle entry point. Suggestions were to clean the area and better diagnose the leak point, as it might have been the rack leaking PS fluid. Not the PS fluid, so I'm wondering if there's an escape point from the engine that this could be engine oil. Engine oil level is down a good bit. Is there a seal or something in this area that could be the culprit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircraft engineer Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 valve cover gasket(s) or the cam seal. Just fixed a 97 where they were both bad. How much oil on the exhaust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much oil on the exhaust? enough to notice, but really not that much. not dripping off and making puddles, but a couple places looked like there was enough to make drips.
