Oil leak question. Omega 2.2 Petrol
« on: 02 March 2008, 18:38:10 »

When I was cleaning out the breather pipe from the sump yesterday (also replacing the metal gasket). I noticed I had an oil leak. Initially I thought it was coming from the breather gasket, but on closer examination it is coming from above it. I cannot see the source as it is behind the exhaust manifold.
Has anyone got any ideas where it may be coming from? :-/

It may be but nothing visible at the top, it just seems to be running down from underneath the exhaust manifold at the back of the engine :o.

Pop the Ecotech strip off, and see if there's any oil in the plug wells.
