I thought I`d managed to make the Clutch Cover oil tight but noticed a bit of a weep.
On closer inspection it seems oil is finding it`s way past the two lower screws.
I`ve tried a couple of small "O" rings but they`ve only slowed it down not cured it.
Has anyone got a solution ?
Cheers
Dave

I read the other. You can use a slightly longer
Screws there.
I would put red stuff under the screw heads.
Cheers Bill.
Cheers Bill,
I`ll give it a go, already got longer screws as I had to make the spacer ring to close the gap between the Primary & Clutch cover.
Cheers
Dave

Or Loctite has options. I’ve used a this or similar (would have to check the tube) to seal brand X cylinder studs.

Red hemertite, I love the stuff, Good luck Bill.
I think Red Hemertite is a bit like Camp Coffee, alright back in the day before we discovered far better alternatives, I thought I was really modern back in the sixties when my long deceased ex father in law used to get me Blue Hylomar from the Rolls Royce factory at Leavesden where he worked.
