Oil leak on 1.6TD by rocker... HELP!

Post by **redstar** » 02 Apr 2008, 14:00

I seem to have a leak, coming from somewhere by the inlet manifold on a 1.6td 86... does anyone know if there are any oilways in the manifold or other possible causes please? starting to pull hair out now!
regards as always....

The rocker cover gasket can loose oil running down to the inlet manifold .Cure replace gasket or try gasket sealent.

rocker is ok, checked today... seems to be behind the inlet manifold somehow.....

are you using more oil???? check the turbo as it might be leaking???

think i may be using a bit, as i looked into the top of the turbo it does seem to have a smidge of oil inside......
