help
« on: 07 February 2009, 19:26:38 »
I'm hoping this is a popular problem with miggies....
I replaced my plugs and leads, and found oil around the top of the plugs.
Can any body give me some advice??
Is it common?
Is it easy to fix?
Just that i can smell a burning oil smell from the engine bay, obviously from this problem.

Sounds like your cam covers are leaking, usually caused by lack of maintenance of the breathers, and lack of regular oil changes.

Have a read through the Maintenance Guides section, for a 'How To'.
