Hi ED, I have car ramps at Crafers, you can use them here and I can have a look too if you like. I'm not particularly interested in fixing oil leaks though! I can get some parts sent here if you need, I have a few trade accounts. PM me if you want to come this way.
Have you checked the rocker cover gasket. I had oil leaking at the rear of the motor and running down underneath and that's what it was. Just a thought.
thanks beeutey, might take you up on that. just a point in the right direction is good.
i thought rocker cover gasket too but doesnt seem to have any leaks from there, its lower. right in line with the oil filter lol. but not the oil filter.
Most like gasket behind the oil filter.
At least when you take the exhaust manifold off to fix the studs you'll have easy access to the oil filter and cooler housings so you can replace the gaskets. Who said land rovers where hard to maintain? :cool:Quote:

i plan to do it all at once i think. i will do the camshaft one through the week, then put my engine cover back on. and keep eye on oil levels for a few weeks. might have a transfer box already i can just put a service kit thing through and bolt back in. if not ill jsut get that out when its off road to get the other bits done. i need it to move my yearling horse back home. then will fix the leaks haha. well i use the term fix loosely :D
And you bought a Land Rover?Quote:
I do not like my baby leaking!
haha yes! now i know more of where its coming from is not so scary :) haha i do not like it leaking no! and i will stop it leaking ;) you watch, first landy in history it will not leak!!!! :P
I'm buying shares in dow corning. Silicon sales set to skyrocket.
Don't believe 'em. "All Landies Leak" is the motto of people who can't be stuffed looking after their vehicle properly.Quote:
