quick favour

Post by chapip »

Got oil leaking and it looks as though its coming from the dipstick. Can anyone check for me to see if there's a seal at the top of their dipstick. There seems to be a recess at the top, dont know whether mines missing a seal making the oil escape.
If anyone's got any ideas as to what else the problem could be it would be much appreciated.
Thanks for any help.

There isnt a seal

Your crankcase breather is probably blocked - its the pipe that joins the bottom of the airbox on the left hand side of the engine.
