...went over at lunch to my indy (he works on Saabs and all other imports. I trust them to do almost anything, but might second guess major engine work). Anyway, he says right away that the distributor cap is leaking and then looks below and said, "yup, the head gasket is as well." I expected that to be the answer, but he honestly said he would not be concerned with it as well as the distributor (much the same answer another poster received from their mechanic about their distributor). He says he sees it enough that if the person is really worried about it, he will clean the engine up and ask them to monitor it. He also told me to wait until something "major" happened. On that note, I guess I would be worried about something else "major" having a problem and it costs me more in the long run. He was not surprised that I discovered no leaks or oil being low and agreed it is a slow "wicking".
Does this seem to make sense, "not to worry about it" at least for a while?
