Midwst Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I have some oil leaking onto my exhaust pipe. Has anyone ever heard of a car catching fire because of this? It does smell bad, but leak is not easy to fix. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I've had the same thing. A little drop of oil makes a lot of smoke. I have had a engine seal go bad where the car was an embaresement to drive, and still no fire ( i was sort of hoping fof it at the time). I dont think its a problem, but do get it fixed. You wil have all that good stuff sucked in by the heating/ac system and it wont be pleasent. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyjo Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 nahh, i had the same thing in my OBS, just smelt bad.. alot. My problem was the oil pump, the screws in it came loose, tightened them up, and no more oil leak. it took us about 4 hours? maybe.. to do it.
