So i found a lil oil residue in the valley of my 4.6 towards the front well i think i have come to the conclusion that the head gasket is leaking just a lil. Is there any thing i can do to fix it with out having to replace the gasket. Its not terribly bad theres like an inch of section thats leakin. I dont have the money to have it replaced

 

Damn no one wants any part of this lol

 

Could also be a leaky lower intake gasket or leaky valve cover gasket.

 

Well i know its not the valve gasket. Not to familiar with this motor what is the intake and were would the gasket be is that the black plastic tubey piece on top

 

I doubt your head gasket is leaking oil. That really doesn't happen a whole lot, but I suppose it is possible in theory. Mustang GTs don't have lower and upper intakes, just a one piece deal and they shouldn't come into any contact with oil.

Are you certain it's oil and not coolant seeping out and making the area wet? That would be an intake and or intake gasket.

 

Ok yea i didnt think oil ran threw the intake but yea i think its oil pretty sure its oil

 

Probably where the valve cover meets the timing cover.

 

This. Very little chance that it's the head gasket leaking.

 

You have no choice but to replace it, unless that thing leaks to its death.
