Bollocks Bollocks and Bollocks
Nightmare just noticed on Sunday a small pool of oil right under the sump from the 1200s whilst it was wintered and sat on the ramp thought that was odd leaking sump plug maybe, i have never had a spot since i have owned her upon closer investigation and a quick strip down off belly pan and headers and ancillaries.
Bollocks, leaking from right in the centre at the top part sump, balancer shaft seal i guess so just getting some idea of any experience with this and to the cost i understand that this is a known problem with the 1200 and that the new seals they use are improved
any advice guidance please
regards all
