Hole in head

[Colt90tsi]

Well after pulling my VC to re-torque my ARP's I noticed that someone had overtightened my fuel rail mounting bolts and the 2 bolts went through the back of the head creating two small holes the size of the end of the bolts.

My question is will this create low compression? Or what? I can post a pic if needed.

Thanks!

No it has nothing to do with compression it How ever could seep oil but I would not worry about that too much. But would still like to see a pic.

Edit: I would be more worried about where the metal plugs that proke out are.

Yeh it has been seeping a lot of oil.

Luckily when I pulled vc to find the holes, the metal pieces were still attatched to the head BARELY, so I took pliers and just pulled it off. Thank god they didnt go in my head.

Thanks for the quick reply

try rapping the ends of the bolts with teflon tape then reinstalling them it should take care of your oil leak.

Yeh thats a good idea, I am sick of having pools of oil chillin on my intake manifold.

Just make sure you are using the right type of teflon tape, from what I have seen the normal plumbing teflon tape deteriorates when exposed to oil.
