Oil leak from engine ??
« on: 31 December 2010, 20:16:22 »

Noted, an oil leak from the rear of the engine on the R/H looking at the engine.

Is there a gasket or rubber seal for the rocker covers as Halfords don't list any. Or is there another source for the oil leak in this part of the engine.

thanks ;)

Rocker covers are a common source of oil leaks from the top of  the engine. Make sure you do the breathers though while you've got the spanners out.

Just keep trying. I think there's been a bit of
probs with the server. I've had  trouble trying to access the site over the last couple of hours.

I had a leak in this area after having a crankshaft sensor fitted . The seal on the sensor was damaged and a leak was evident.

Try this one...

Thanks, Nope not working.
This is where I've been about the cam covers etc. and trying the link to http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1152598350 about the breather.

When the link opens although saying 'I'm not allowed to access', I'm also as a Guest in the upper page, then as soon I click to login. My Username comes up on its own without doing anything. But no matter how many times I open that page I have to click login to see my Username otherwise I'm a Guest everytime

I've tried changing my Cookie and Popup settings to access the page and no joy.
