Guest Andy Bird Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Crank seals, rocker cover gasket, sump, oil filter housing, could be anything mate. Once you find it clean it all up so you.can make sur its stopped! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Most common is the rocker cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Cam covers are the first port of call. I'd steam it off using plenty of detergent, after checking the cam cover bolts (DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN, you can crack the covers). Get it on a ramp if needed, and see if you can see the source of things. Or park on his lawn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
