well ive degreased it all and washed it all off. driven it 10miles. no smoke and doesnt smell too bad. but there seems to be a very thin smear of oil on the edge of the cover along the lip above where it joins the head. as if its coming down from above.

Cover cracked ?

Is it near where the filler neck plugs in? Could unplug it and plug the cap in instead to eliminate, if so?

[scottambrose]

Il try that see if it works

If the half moons are seated correctly I would pull the coil pack to check if it is leaking into the plug-wells.
