Engine Mechanical problem
1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual
my engine block was rebuilt. it runs good at idle. i think the front main seal is leaking. im burning oil and i can smell gas in the valve cover. i use mobile 1 5w-20. i dont get smoke from the exhaust until i give it some gas. no oil leak until i run it for a little while. i think i need to replace the valves but its cheaper to replace it with a rebuilt head. recommended oil is 10w should i change to a higher viscosity? how do i test to find out for sure if it is my valve or something else?
