Oil leak and wading plugs

<< < (2/2)

Les Henson:
An oil leak quite often cleans the dirt off where it's coming out. Look for a clean patch after the engine has been off for a while. You might be able to get the whole engine steam cleaned for about £20.

Rocker cover or oil seperator on breather?

Shouldn't be an issue with wading plugs left in, just make sure you take them out every couple of weeks and check there's no build up of any foreign object/fluids. If you know you're not expecting to do any deep water wading for a while leave them out until you're planning another trip  :wink:

There is some congealed smeg on the bottom of the breather by the rocker cover. Richard saw it, are they easy to take apart or should I go to LR and see how much to replace  :?:
