Oil leak and fire hazard
I have an oil leak. Cam cover somewhere I think. I've gotta get it fixed, but I want to wait till after xmas. Some of the oil is spraying on the exhaust causing a VERY thin smoke output at the end of the day in my garage.
What is the chance of a fire? The leak is pretty 'slow'. Like less than a quart every3K miles. I only noticed the smoke the other day when the sun was shining into the garage windows, otherwise I would have never noticed. I'm I worrying too much? This problem does NOT need my immediate attention right? Just asking you all your opinions.... Thanks, Jeff
