  • The clothes were coming off in the shed today. There's a small oil leak, coming from the oil filter cover plate or the sump bolt as the copper washer has been over torqued and cracked. Have cleaned everything and placed cardboard underneath to see if it helps the diagnosis, but either way have some gaskets for peace of mind.

  • I found talcum powder super helpful for finding my leaks. Clean everything spotlessly, then talc it, then run the engine and watch close for the leak.

  • Never knew this was a thing until a few days ago after searching online. My main route of investigation is the repaired oil tank, I thought it was okay but there was seepage under the repair today. Would ordinarily buy new but looking at prices will see how much welding it up is.
