Hi all, I fitted my powdercoated cam covers today, used a bit of sealent when I fitted them but they piss out oil

What have all of you used to seal them?

loctite copper seal. J4 cam covers can be a complete c**t to seal though tbh, thats why people upgrade to jp4 covers.

Instant gasket works a treat! thats what i use.

use petrol to clean both the surfaces ! and let them dry out !

also dont bolt the cam cover down to much to start with then let the instant gasket dry out then bolt it right down as it will then create a bead if u like and seal them properly !
