Just got back from my 1st show of the year, and I now definitely have an oil leak. 5ltrs of oil for 360 miles = problem.
I suspect that it's the flywheel oil seal:
- *The oil seems to be coming from between the engine and gearbox
*It's also coming out around the starter motor
*The clutch is slipping...
- *Engine out
*Clutch off
*Flywheel off (using special tool or impact tools - no compressor, so special tool it is)
*Remove perished seal
*Fit new seal
*Refitting is reverse of removal as they say.
Helpful replies to the barrage of questions are greatly appreciated!
