I have an oil leak coming from the cylinder head, so I thought I best change the gasket. I decided to change the oil at the same time (20w50 so nice and thick stuff for summer). When I turned the engine on to warm it up I could see flames spitting out of the cylinder head!

Going to change the gasket and top up the oil once it's cooled down.

Has anyone seen this before? If so, will gasket and oil change solve the problem?

Thanks!

Update: new rocker cover gaskets, locktight and oil change has done the trick
