Title: Oil Filler Seal
Post by: MikeDundee on 29 December 2011, 08:06:12

Does anyone know the part number for the seal/rubber that fits the oil filler neck where it connects to the cam cover, think mine is gone as leaking oil.

Not offhand, but always been given right one when I've bought one :)

In the meantime, remove filler neck, and put yellow cap directly on cam cover :y

Its a big o-ring - as a temp solution try swapping the one on the oil cap with the leaking one - they are both the same size/part no.

Yes, but less extreme.

But removing the neck altogether until new part available is a fix ;)

I managed to drive all the way to Vauxhall (about five miles) without a filler cap at all and no leaks.. Ahem  :-[ :-[
