Got a 98 4runner limited....today noticed a oil burnin smell and noticed a little oil sepage on the passenger side.....I checked the valve cover bolts and they were a little loose. I tighted them down, sprayed the engine down, then drove it around for a few minutes...didn't notice any smell anymore, or leak, going to see what happens this week. I'm wondering if they simply needed tightening, or if indeed need replacing?? any thoughts?
