My 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP has an oil leak located on the firewall side of the engine. It's a small leak (2-3 drops a day) but very messy on my concrete driveway. How can I fix it?
Re: My 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP has an oil leak...
Try some motor honey. It can be bought at most part stores, advanced auto, autozone, ect. It worked for my 95 Grand Am when I had a leak in my oil pan gasket. Hope this helps

It should be on the engine side of the firewall down low at the right hand/passenger side. Look for a very short, small hose, about 3/8" in diamter and just a few inches long that is pointing downwards. They often get plugged with crud and just need to be blown out to get them to work again.
Make sure your cooling fans are coming on when the temp heats up. Are you talking about a leak inside the car or outside? Inside is usaully a drain tube for the A/C stopped up. Outside, look for a water pump or intake gasket.
It could be the Oil pressure sensor is bad and leaking oil, There know to go bad and will leak worst when driving as the oil pressure goes up.
Good luck and hope this helps.
