Twintop Spilling Oil :(

[wharton]

Hey guys

Had a quick look under the bonnet today as the weather has been so bad lately I wanted to check she was still there.

z20ler was still there but I was shocked at the amount of oil there was present to the right hand side of the rocker cover.
Anybody advise on basic cheap fixes before I have to get it checked in at Vx who I no will spank me.

Rocker cover gasket leaking?

As above mate

How do I test ? What prices am I looking at to get it changed ? .

[Rob]

Wipe the oil off, start it up and look for the fresh drip

Not hard to change at all, can do it yourself or you could ask nick very nicely

[Adz]

As Rob said just wipe it fully and monitor it. If its only a slight leak you may not see it straight away so check it at intervals. Just make sure if it is that you dont buy a cheap ****ty gasket and also its changed properly. Ask [MENTION=46]ANT-VXR[/MENTION] he will tell you what and how

Thanks for the heads up. Will be buying genuine parts from vx as always. Thanks for the heads up gents.

Get a replacement gasket from KRP in Brierley Hill matey

Make sure you top your oil up also lol

£16.95 or round about for genuine victor reinz rocker gasket.. And literally 5 min job.. Bit if your changing that you may aswell get yourself a rocker cover sprayed up and fit that save having to buy another gasket when you decide to change in the engine bay.. Hoses.. Shiny bits etc...

and most common place to be leaking from mate
