I got my reman head installed. (2.3 quad 4 95 Grand Am)
Now I have a oil leak. It looks like it is eather the gasket between the timing housing and the exhaust cam tower -or- the cam seal. I never removed the cam from the tower so I didn't replace the seal. What do you think?
I would seriously think about buying a different car, because those engines are junk anyways.
I'm not sure what you did, but I would hazard a guess that you made the classic mistake on these engines. The gasket between the camshaft towers and front housing goes on one way for the intake and the reverse way for the exhaust. Because there is the orange seal strips on only one side of the gaskets, it fools you into installing them the same way on both towers. You end up with the oil leak that you describe. Unfortunately for you, it means taking the front end back apart.
