My VX has not been driven for a couple of months now and has been sitting in the garage, it has only occasionally been started up and when I do there is a horrible oil burning smell as oil seems to leak from the rocker cover gaskets onto the manifolds as the car warms up.
I have tested the rocker cover bolts for tightness and they are all ok, it did not do this when I was driving it on a daily basis, could it be the fact that oil has been sitting idle in the upper part of the engine and may have harmed the gasket?
