Hartford 6 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Hi Chaps, After fitting a new alloy rocker cover I find I now have a pool of oil under the car. I was really careful on how I fitted the cover and new gasket. I did notice the new filler cap was vented, whilst the original was not?? Any suggestions?

Mark V Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 Same problem on mine, I added a small stainless self tapper with some locktite, no more leaks. Did get a new cap once, poor seal which also leaked. Another alloy rocker cover had a poor seal between the neck of the filler and the allot body. I think the caps maybe from motorcycle fuel tanks, hence a breather hole. Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
