1998 Subaru Impreza All Wheel Drive Manual

hi I have a 2litre turbo and it is overheating, i've changed the theormostat and header tank but it is still overheating any ideas? Also it is leaking oil from the rocker cover gasket could this cause it to over heat? Thanks.

If you're losing oil the engine tends to get hotter due to friction and can cause the engine to overheat. Your best is to get it block and pressure tested to find the problem and fix the valve cover leak.
