Hello, I just picked up a 89' hatchback. Got it for $700. It has the KA24E in it and the previous owner said it was getting fuel in the valve cover. The weird thing is, is it doesnt smoke, doesnt miss, timing is dead on, just fuel leaking from valve cover. Any advice before I pull the motor? Thanks.

Are you sure its coming out the valve cover? Your fuel rail is on the left side so if any of the seals on the injectors is bad then maybe it could appear that its leaking from the cover...

It was actually completely Mixing fuel with the oil. I redid all the wiring and found that whoever had it before had the fuel pressure regulator disconnected. And the plug for injector #2 was plugged into the iacv and the iacv was plugged into the injector #2. So I fixed that and it doesn't seem to be mixing fuel with oil now.
