>no im leaking cause it drippes onto my driveway
OK, now we're getting somewhere. First off, slow down when yer typing. We can hardly understand you! You don't have some chew in yer mouth do you?
You're gonna have to clean off the engine REAL good!! If it's cold outside where you live, then good luck to ya! Just don't create another problem by going to the car wash and using that high pressure hose all over the thing. Take a bunch of rags with you, some good engine Brite stuff, old tooth brushes, old stiff bristled paintbrushes etc....
There are a number of ways that you can detect a leak. I'll go in order of expense. The most first.
[ul]
[li] Pay someone to put dye in it. Then let them put an UV light to it so see where it is coming from.
[li] YOU get some dye and a light and do it yourself.
[li] After you clean it, drive it up to temp and look frequently to see if you can locate where it is leaking from. A Flashlight will help even during the daylight hours.
[li] After you clean it, get some areosol foot powder or something similar and spray down you engine where oil could leak out of. Make sure the engine is dry! Do around the seals and stuff...Drive it up to temp. Look where you sprayed the foot powder. Congratulations, where it turned brown is where your leak is.
[li] Fix it.

Now, try one of these things (or something that someone else might add) and tell us what the result was, OK? Cool.
