rowekmr Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I just got this car with 93k and after trips when I am parking I faintly smell burnt oil. I am guessing it is the valve cover gaskets. Is this a common issue? I looked online and couldn't find one video for the 3.0L in the Fusion. Can it be other gaskets, I assumed valve cover gasket because the oil is hitting the manifolds and burning. Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z3RO5IXX Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I had this problem, it was the rear gasket. The center bolts of the valve cover seeped oil, so when accelerating the oil would spill over onto the exhaust.. Changed that, didn't smell the oil again. Hope this helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
