but it all depends where the oil is coming from to be able to fix it just degrease the engine really well and run it and watch to see where exactly the oil leaks is, it is possible for the oil to wick up the intake bolts if intake gasket is inproperly installed ,

it hard to say exactly whats going on with out seeing for myself

which part of the intake doesnt it look like its coming from front, back? a blowout intake gasket would cause poor driveability due to a big vacumm leak also if it looks like oil from the back side of intake those oil pressure sensor have been to know to leak, u arent giving many details for us to work w/
ok i dont have the sensor i have oil presure gauge temp and volt. i have oil pooling on the bolt holes were the intake gets set. i think it is from the rear i dont know i have no money and a full gasket set is 79.99 at avanced i cant get a good look with it in the engine compartment and my cherry picker is at a house that wont give it back to me

If your intake is leaking oil, and it all of the sudden is running funny. Well, to me thats sounds like you blew out one of the two end seals either front or back of your intake. You do have a SBC right? If so, that's what it sounds like to me. if its leaking oil, then theres also going to be a vacum leak also and that will definately make it run funny.
took her out for a drive she is still doing it right now it seems like my heads are bad again but that cant be cause these were put on in late july! :mad: if they are bad then im never going to m&j again to get work done ill check that out weshole thanks ? i dont know abreviations so what does SBC stand for??? 😕
