What/how to you recommend cleaning it? I took it once to that car wash thing and it didn't do much. I don't' want to get water where it's not supposed to be. Also, if it is in fact leaking from the front crank casing is that something even worth fixing, or will it just leak oil forever? I know my valve covers are leaking but I didn't think that they could put down about a 2 inch diameter circle of oil every night, plus I don't see that much "liquid" oil around them, just all over the bottom of the engine. I do see oil stains that seem to go up onto the valve covers, it goes up about 1 inch from the gaskets and then is clean the rest of the way. The only leak that you mentioned there that concerns me is the crank casing because I'm not sure that I could reasonably have that fixed. Thanks for your help
