He can be a bit hard to get hold of i.e. doesnt pick up the phone straight away but he always calls back or responds on e-mail. He really knows his stuff!

Pulling oil seals is so much easier with a proper hook screwdriver

I use a sealant made by renault for the 16v cam cover its a thin resin sealant. 👍👍 i use it on all none gasket surfaces and stuff where you have to remove lots of bits to fix the leak 😄😄

I really appreciate your clean approach (non mess). While watching the flimsy gasket being slid on, I wondered if it might be safer to progressively press the gasket down with a deep socket or 6-8mm diameter pipe? Just curious if you had any thoughts as you have the hands on experience.
@classicminiworkshop3 жыл бұрын
Thanks Matthew, yes probably would have been easier with some pipe. I had to walk it down really carefully as it was an exact fit around the studs

Hi Keith the engine is starting to look great, what is the gasket sealant your using. M
Is there a bronze guide bush like the manual transmissions that wear out or only the outer seals?
@classicminiworkshopАй бұрын
I dont think so

Hi I know the video is a few years old now but I have a question. Do you know if this can be done with the engine still in the car? I have a slight leak on the differential casing seal

Yes, it can

Great video and the engine looks superb! One tip I saw on a video of a guy rebuilding an E type engine he used blue hylomar. hylomar.com/en/universal-blue/ as apparently, as it doesn’t set, it can’t contaminate oilways etc.
@classicminiworkshop3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the tip! I've used Blue Hylomar before, infact I have a couple of tubes. It's pretty good stuff
