oil leak 900

posted by  someone claiming to be charles on  Sun Mar 7 04:00 CST 2004 [RELATED]

hi everybody.i have a 1994 940 not turbo with 130.000 miles on it.i have an oil leak and after i steam cleaned the engine i could say that the oil is leaking at the front above the water pump ( between the head and the block).i could say it is from the head gasket.my first question is can i retorque the head maybe that will take care of it,if not can i just take the head out and install a new head gasket without sending it to a machine shop.my other question is,i have a head out of an engine that has 80.000 miles,can i install that head on my car without sending it to a machine shop also for resurface ( knowing this head is good).i have no problems like overheating and so on in the head except for this oil leak.any answers would be appreciated.thankyou for your time and god bless.charles.
