cheeky leaky

[ns9900]

Got a good leak from th sump when fitting new things to car. Tried Wynns engine leak solution but will that

1. Work
2. Hold up till full service in half a year?

Can do service now but little short on time...

And I reused a washer , so I deserve some stick!

which washer?

[ns9900]

Sump washer :( I know, shame on me !

[Gandi699]

drain all the oil out and refit a new one, ten minutes work tops?

[ns9900]

Which side shall I Jack up to tilt th oil out? Or do I not need ? I guess it's easy but then comes the oil ...will the Wynns hold up till summer you reckon?

[Gandi699]

either side, you could do it without a jack if you could get underneath. If its got an oil leak, and you've expressed an intention to track the car, then bang a new washer on as it only takes minutes - you dont want to be leaking oil on track nor relying on wynns to stop it as frankly it wont stop it

Sweet, cheers for the kind reminder! Should I splash out on good oil?

10w40 semi synthetic is good enough, and a decent filter.
I stocked up on Castrol GTX over the summer as it was cheap but there are other brands
