Adi Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hello all, Ever since i put in a new valve cover gasket, the breather cap has been leaking oil. How do i fix this leak? Is the breather cap screwed on or just "thumped on" the valve cover? Would appreciate with any ideas. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Adi, If i remember correctly my series three was the same, you just work it back and forward whilst pulling it off. Regards Grant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
