Would like oil leak fixed

mike92105 did pass the time by typing:

Just remember if you use a pressure washer.. do not use the high pressure when pointing around gaskets or you can rip the gasket material or drive water into the oil pan. Also cover the distributor with a baggie (I use foil) and don't spray a hot engine. And what ever you do, wear protective eyewear.. cleaner and oil/crud in the eyeball sucks muchly.

I used the Gunk brand foaming engine cleaner on my old truck. All it took to wash off was a garden hose... Having a gravel driveway was a nice thing at that time. Don't use it on a concrete driveway unless you like massive stains.

Which engine is it? If the V8, then sometimes oil leaks out the rear of the intake manifold gasket. DIY carwash is a good way to remove oil, if you don't get the ignition system wet.

The local spray-n-wash is a good idea. If there is one really near to your house, you can spray the motor down with Simple Green, then drive to the spray-n-wash and clean it all off. The Simple Green will cut all of the dirt and crud and leave your motor clean enough to eat off of, you might even be able to cook a burrito on your commute to work.

Once you get it cleaned up, and still need a mechanic, I have used Jeff Sheckle in El Cajon.

And, if you do get the ignition (distributor) wet, then use WD40 on the inside of the distributor cap.
