Hi all. My 84 dg is leaking oil from base of breather tower. Should there be a gasket on there? Or does it have an o ring? Can’t make out if it does have an o ring and whether it’s gone hard
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks

Oil breather leak
Yeah should have an O-ring N90106101 and there should be 2 washers on each stud, flat & spring, but don’t over tighten the nut, it only needs 8Nm torque.

Re: Oil breather leak
It should have an O-ring:
Partnr is N90106101
Victor Reinz equivalent partnr: 40-76151-00
63x4mm
