Hello all... again!
I've had nothing but oil leak issues from my 650cc engine. I rebuilt the engine using these nice springs pushrod tubes. They came with silicone seals but from day 1, have caused a leak. Upon investigation I realised due to my own fault and one was a little mooshed.
I replaced them, all fine. But the leaking continues.
I then gave up and handed the car to a local italian specialist to replace them. They did this, and it was still leaking. So it was suggested we try the original rubber seals.
They then swapped out the silicone ones for rubber.
I collected the car and done 0.4 miles before pulling over due to the sheer amount of oil that was being pushed from the seals!
So that's 4 lots of tube seals my engine has been through and it still leaks like a colander.
Has anyone got a solution?
Many thanks,
Alex.
