hvr6 88 Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 there is a piece of socket set inside my rocker cover... found a patch of oil under the car after putting on a Rado metal cam cover so we were checking to see if the gauze in the oil breather pipe was there... Mark let go of said tool...he's moved work commitments around for tomorrow so should be able to sort it then I can get cleanin... it doesn't need much but a good day and a half of cleaning work was planned by me as I'm on leave from workcan always do bits at the International Centre only thing is if the oil problem isn't cos of the cam cover then she's not going...
