Last night after a driving home I noticed a burning smell from my engine, so I popped my bonnet and noticed oil everywhere! So I clean it all and couldnt find it leaking or spurting out from anywhere. So I closed the bonnet, drove it the rest of the way home and got out, popped the bonnet and oil everywhere again!
I dont know much about engines so I left it and then this morning went out, started it with the bonnet open and no oil from anywhere.. but the chambers 1 and 2 from the spark plugs have alot of oil in them and the exhaust no sounds like a subaru..(which i dont think it healthy). When I drove it yesterday it pulled fine and no smoke and even this morning, no smoke when I revved it.
But I know something is up because the underside of my bonnet was covered in oil too! I stay miles away from any garages as I stay in the middle of nowhere and I dont want to drive it! I asked my mate and he says it could be a piston, piston rings or my head gasket!
Can anyone shed any light? If you need to know more I can answer any question on what is happening.
Thanks
