Hi
I had an alarming amount of oil in my engine bay and all over the new drive the other morning.
I found the problem to be the rocker cover gasket had somehow torn and was actually hanging out at the back. No idea how!
So i replaced it as best I could. The burning smell went quite quick and after an oil top up it was fine (engine bay need cleaning now though!)
But after taking my wheel off today I noticed the sump was coated in fresh oil! No idea were its comming from because the rocker cover seams fine around the seal.
(The car had been demoted to the road after spoiling the drive so I dint notice the oil pool on the road so no idea how long its been leaking.)
Any ideas how to find the leak?
Or if there is more to changing the rocker cover than just slipping a new rubber in and i just did it wrong?
Thanks
Chris
