Is this bad?

[StockerThanStock]

Obviously I have a stock KA24DE, but on the head between the spark plugs, one of the bolts holding the head down had some oil around it. I went to tighten it and it just spun! It won't tighten!

Is this bad? What problems can this cause if it is bad?

your valve cover is probobly leaking, very easy and cheap to fix

So what could happen if I let this problem slide and pretend nothing happened?

Yeah, he didnt answer your question well.Yeah, that is kinda bad. You need to get a machine shop to drill out and tap the hole that the screw fits into so you can get a tight hold on the cover. You then need an over sized screw to fit the new threading. Also just replace the seal on the valve cover.

...pretend nothing happened?

wow...thats just silly. Of course you want to take care of it.

Well yeah I want to take care of it, but I'm saving for an RB26. Until then though, I need to be really nice to this car.

Edit: Thanks though!
