Hi.
As the weather has been kind the last week I have now caught up with some pending jobs on the Doblo.
One thing that had been put off was the porous sump.
So I obtained a new manicat to head gasket new sump and sealer, after draining off the oil and removing the manicat etc the sump was removed, the sealer had also been very poorly applied with odd bits having very little or no sealer to be seen.
While I was in there I could see one bellhousing bolt actually loose! I then tried them all and none was any more than finger tight, so much for a garage clutch replacement!
To cut the story down the replacement went perfectly and all is well.
Snag though I still have a little drip it is on the timing belt side, a new rocker gasket was carefully fitted but with NO sealer (was that wrong?)
The drip is seen on the oil filter housing and also an the power steering pump and after a while a little from behind the crankshaft pulley. The timing belt is not contaminated.
Any Ideas?
