Quick MOT question

[reb78]

Is my 110 likely to fail the MOT over a weeping leak from the transfer box. It is enough that even if you clean it up, take it out for a run and there will be enough to have drips from the bottom bolts of the cover. There is a little on the handbrake from wind blowing the drips back.

I know i need to fix it, but will do it before the MOT if it might fail on it and leave it till after if it wont be a problem.

Thanks.

Unless it's making the vehicle unsafe, I wouldn't worry. All three of mine leak from the front output seals, some worse than others

If you're concerned, stop round the corner from the station before you get there, and wipe it all off

A slight oil leak that you describe will not fail the mot. If the oil has entered the handbrake drum and made it inefective then that will fail. Give it all a good wipe prior to mot appointment and you should be ok

Cheers. I'll book it in.

Just waiting for my uncles engine hoist to become free then will drop the box to fix it.

Landy is booked in for the MOT on tuesday. Just checked it over and all seems fine. One more question though - i turned up the boost and fuelling (boost diaphragm, not max fuel or smoke screw) earlier this year - no difference that i could see with smoke etc, but is this likely to affect the emmissions test results and should i turn the boost diaphragm back for the test?

Dont know about the fueling but you might get an advisory for the t box (i did )and thats all
