              Rocker cover now back off...oil ****ing out

              Put it on by just nipping the bolts up checked for leaks ..loads.. tried tightening the bolts , some oil leaks stopped but a couple wouldnt stop leaking and now i think ive over tightened the bolts and ****ed the gasket ,also ripped gasket taking it back off so a new one on order and will try again

              gasket ony £2.50 Bolts £2.50 and already had an allen key in my socket set so £5 for my fitting kit ...make that £7.50 as i need another gasket

                Get a genuine Ford gasket Gaz, they have steel pins in them either side of the bolt holes so you can't over tighten them

                I just got a silver "Injection" cover from Darran on Sunday .

                £25, brand new, no leaks, uses the wide gasket (with the pins in)

                Car won't go as fast as one with an alloy cover on but it saved me £££££££££££'s
                Cheers Rob.

                      Did it involve a fire and a 1000cc motorbike ??

                        It's just a show-camcover, you have to fit the old one if you want to drive the car. Didn't you knew that????

                          forget about the oil leaks gaz, you dont use it and its always just parked up - just admire it
