oil leak at vacuum pump end
#1
got a very slight oil leak on vacuum end off the head swaped the seal still leaking the odd drip is there a seal on camshaft on that end ? cheers
#2
Have you got a pic of the pump? if they are the same design as the GTi ones, i always found keeping a new seal on there and running a bead of sealant around the outer edge of the pump where it meets the face of the head works.
