Half moon seals
Had a small oil leak the other week and it was comming from the corner of the half moon seals.
Ordered another gasket set from woodford and set about fitting it. Used hylomar around the half moons to make sure.
Been for a nice drive and its leaking worse then before and again from the two half moon seals!!!! ARRRRGGGGHH
:-(
Ordered yet another gasket set , but wondered what you guys reckon? any tips for fitting it??
Got to be 3rd time lucky.........
My brand spanking engine is all oily too, so now needs a good clean!

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
cosworth engines are prone to leak oil .
they are shitty when it comes to the design of the front oil seals,i mean there is an o ring,sim ring,rocker cover casket,,and the half moons..i mean..herrooo.stupid design.buuut...
make shure all the surfaces are clean and straight..maybe do a slight reface on the rocker cover.
im gonna try out a new sealer that i bought at my work.its supposed to be verrry good.
