Bad oil leak
Posted: Fri Apr 15, 2011 10:44 am
Okay guys I got myself a pretty bad oil leak at the moment. It's been going for a while now but its accelerated quite a lot now. I brought a 5L bottle of cheap oil two weeks ago and its already almost empty =/
I'm pretty sure the leak is below the rocker cover as its dry all around it and I've never removed it. I'm going to have a serious check tonight but I dont have a perticularly good jack. Has anyone got any ideas as to what to check??
I'm thinking:-
* Oil filter (but its pretty hard to check)
* Oil drain hole (doubt it would leak this badly)
* Sump gasket (
* Worst case: crankshaft oil seals (fingers crossed its not)
