    Re: Engine rebuilds

    Sounds like a plan [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

    I've fired the turd up and she's no longer leaking so I can now get her through an MOT and then take her to Steve (Jonneyflame) for a rebuild and it sounds...

    Firstly I'm going to try the quick...

    Re: Engine rebuilds

    I'll probably be able to get it done at the garage I work in on my days off.

    Hopefully that's the case because the bike's looking alot like a garden feature at the moment :(

    Re: Engine rebuilds

    No worries.

    I'll try the options available to me first before I spend loads on the engine being removed :(

    Re: Engine rebuilds

    I have 4 on mine

    A top one, one just below it, one below that and I'm guessing the sump one.

    If you look at a bike's engine, the leaks coming from the gasket that's at the same height as the...

    Re: Engine rebuilds

    I'm going to try the halfords options first and see if that'll sort the problem.

    Re: Engine rebuilds

    I can get a photo to you.

    The oil leak's coming from the gasket just below the main cylinder head so it's not a simple job :(

    The mechanic I work with has told me that I can buy a sealant that...

    Re: Engine rebuilds

    I can't afford it really but it's got to be done.

    I was going to get an engine sealant for the tiny hole just so I can get it through an MOT :(

    I have an oil leak from one of my gaskets and I'm not skilled enough to do the job myself :(
