Hi Guys, I have been using this great site for a while to get really helpful info and have also acquired one of Mustang's valve shim tools which was brilliant at getting shims out recently. But, I have been putting everything back together and I can't seem to get the rocker cover gasket to seal properly. It leaks a little oil out of the left side. I didn't put a new gsaket on as the are nearly £30, but maybe I should have done.
Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.
Thanks, Nick
did you try using alittle silicone sealant on the gasket where the leak is .
Triumph recommends using sealant in and on the 4 camshaft areas as well as the plug holes and 4 corners
me , I don't bother as long as the rubber gasket is in good shape . and haven't had one leak yet (cursed myself now)
also over tightening the valve cover bolts can produce a leak also , they only need to be 7 nm IIRC
