Rich, looking at those bolts I recognise a fair few of them too ![]() Started on my engine and noticed there was a leak around the crank seal but looking at it after reading this I'm pretty sure its the end cap thats the cause. Been looking round for that autojoint but can't find it ![]() only seen Hylamar Those pulleys are almost done - will send you some details - I've not forgotten!! |

There is a seal, but it's bonded to the cam covers and can't be replaced. If it's leaking you could a bead of Autojoint in addition to the bonded seals, that should cure it. ![]() ________________________________________ Contact Details:rich@lynxpowerengineering.co.uk 07732 822546 |

Peugeot have changed their Autojoint from a gold colour to a silver one now. I was told that Peugeot's varient is silver where Citroen uses black ![]() Quick question on the inlet valves - what was stamped at the top of the valve? Mine have TRW-J and when I've removed them there is only about 1mm of seating so something is not right. Just wondering whether I have the wrong valves or the seats have been replaced with the wrong part |
