Title: Help - oil leak
Post by: rimmac on 30 May 2010, 22:18:01

Removed crankcase breather pipe today on my 2.2 CD to clean. Cleaned out ok and refitted with new gasket but now after the engine has been run it looks like like the BP oil disaster - oil leaking from where pipe joins crankase. Simple job!!!! what can go wrong??? anybody got any suggestions.

Remove again, check, clean, and re-seal, if it persists, use a small amount of hte VX black goo, very  SPARINGLY  :y

Thanks, I suppose there's nothing else to do but it could well be a case of resorting to the black goo as both mating surfaces are clean and undamaged and I've used a brand new vx gasket.  :)
