Default RE: internal engine pressure

First of all what model is your car? If it is pre 99 check your flame trap and breather box to see if it is clogged.If it is 2000 or up check the breather box and all hoses coming to and from it they usually clog up and then vent where ever they can if the pressure becomes to much then it will start pushing seals out causing more leaks.Check those things and let me know
