oil leak

<< < (3/4) > >>

El__burro:
found a spare seal in a rocker cover I have in my roof.
looks ok, i will try to fit it tomorrow to see if it still leaks.

thanks

hairygit:
So from what I've just read, you took the seal from another rocker cover? Don't waste your time and effort hoping a seal of unknown age or previous use will fix your problem, could even make it worse! Just get a new one, better safe than sorry!

it came off a spare cover for the same model/year, it looks in good conditions.
I'll see if it leaks, if it does I'll get a brand new one.
thanks

El__burro:
Unfortunately also with the new washer it's leaking a bit. I was thinking I could use the tacho cable (is it?) to block the hole an blank it.
Has anyone tried this before?
Thanks

Surely you are bound to get a leak unless the hole is completely sealed in some way, by the cable or otherwise.
Saw this, at £10 it seems cheap enough and I reckon it should stop your leak.
