Ticking And Oil leak 5sfe

[noler86]

Lately ive noticed there have been some oil drips on the garage floor. I look under the hood i hear a tiking sound, and i notice some oil around where the spark plug leads go in to the block. i just tightened my oil filter, that could be the driping. but the leak by the leads is the most nerveracking. What could this be. its a 91 5th gen gt 5sfe with 98000 miles on it. Also my clutch is about dead. im debating getting a performance clutch any recomondations?

if the oil is outside the combustion chamber then could just be the tube seals. make sure the nuts that hold the rocker cover on are tight enough

a ticking sound usualy is valves. im pretty sure ,with your gt ,you wont be able to adjust them unless you have shims. you will need to take it to a shop or find some shims. i replied to your other post about clutches.... check out this site... www.lukprogold.com they give some pretty good explinations. these are the guys im going to get my clutch through.
