the head cover gasket may be perished already. replace the gasket. it's not that difficult.
if you are a quripot and refuse to replace it, tighten the bolts nearest the leak. but i shall pretend i did not advise that.

Tighten ko muna cguro yung bolts pansamantala muna tapos wipe off ko ung oil then pinapaandar ko lang naman yan araw2 check ko kung maglileak pba, pansin ko nasa bolts yung leaks kasi? Iwasan nlang muna ibyahe yung sasakyan lalo na pag malayo di din naman muna masyado magagamit until mapaayos yung leak. .tanong ko lang po ajo pa ba ibang possible reason sa leak aside sa wear and tear?

majority will respond positively to simply tightening the bolt. either the gasket perished via ordinary wear and tear, or, for some reason, the bolt simply loosened. this is assuming the gasket has not perished that badly, yet.
in a few cases, engine block or cylinder head warp due to overheat or physical damage, can do the same type of leaking.
overheat can also cause the gasket to fail early in its life.

you can try teflon or other gasket maker. but these products need to have the mating surfaces cleaned very very well, if they are to stick well.
but as you will need to remove the cover and gasket to do this, might as well replace the gasket! nandun ka na, e. yung gasket na lang ang kulang. it is not hideously expensive, and it will offer a more permanent, factory-spec cure.
if you feel you lack the skill to do it, ask the tambay na mekanikos sa harap ng auto supply shops to do it. laging meron dun. i used to do it myself, back when the waistline wasn't posing a problem between me and the engine... heh heh.

DO NOT TIGHTEN ... I learned that the hard way, and the bolt snapped.

Nanganak ang problema.

Replace valve cover gasket.

[mckeinley]

Aw thanks sa inputs nyo. .replace na lang talaga head gasket for long term solution. .tsaka kung hindi ako nahkakamali pinalitan din ata to ng previous owner last march ng head gasket, 3 months pa nakaraan. .kung overheat problema yung temp needle nya never naman lumalagpas sa kalahati, unless may problema temp gauge nya din cguro?

Valve cover gasket yan bro, kapag pinalitan mo, linisan mo maigi surface and wag mo gamitan ng gasket maker or any sealant.

[mckeinley]

if you will not use any gasketmaker, as what some recommend, simply wipe the mating surfaces with a cloth to remove particulate matter and excess oil, so that they are dry. you might have to use some brute force with a blunt edge, to remove solidified gums.
how much the gasket? i... don't know. haven't bought one in ages.
kung may yupi, it will have to be straightened out. you can do it, if you are handy with your hands and have the proper tools.
total labor should not go beyond 500 bucks, and that's already very generous.
good luck, po.

Hello po. I'm a newbie here. Magpapatulong po sana ako. I need your advices po. My car is a '95 Nissan Sentra Super Saloon (GA16 yung makina)

Recently, my car engine overheated. Naghahalo yung oil and tubig. Dinala ko sa isang car care shop, unang diagnosis was top overhaul lang. Tinanggal na nila yung cylinder head then sabi nila may linya na daw yung liners kaya ipapagawa na din sa machine shop. Pinaresurface yung cylinder head, pina grind yung crankshaft, nagpapalit ng sleeve, piston at piston rings, valve seals. Took a week bago nagawa, then kinabit na lahat, changed the oil. Nirelease na after days, pero sobrang usok kaya binalik ko then nakita na humahalo pa din. Ang ginawa na naman sa cylinder head is pina hydro test then wala naman nakitang crack, pero sabi nung mekaniko may nakita daw silang crack palitan na daw yung cylinder head. So yun, nagpalit kami ng surplus worth 16k. Pina overhaul din yung radiator.

Then ok na daw, hindi ko pa masyadong ginamit kasi mausok ng sobra pero dahil lang daw yun sa sinusunog yung bagong parts. I checked the radiator cap naghahalo pa din yung oil and water. Ang sinasabi ng mekaniko is may tama na naman daw yung cylinder head. Ang pinagbilhan ko nun is a credible dealer of car parts (CBROS) and kakilala namin so good one yung binigay. Ano po ba sa tingin nyo yung sira? Yung mekaniko kasi parang hindi naman talaga marunong pa. Gusto nya palit lang ng palit hindi nya naman nakikita kung ano talaga yung sira. Sorry po for the long post. Please help thanks a lot po!

Tsk. Mahirap to wala sa harapan ko ung engine at di talaga makita. Pero kung tiwala ka na okay head mo, at sabi mo nga pinapalitan ng sleeve... Pag di magaling mag re-sleeve at mag deck ng block ung machine shop, pede lumubog ng kaunti sleeve enough to cause the sharon cuneta and smoke machine.
