As a regular reader of the forum,firstly need to thank all contributors as many of my niggles are sorted via other peoples questions and solutions.
My current Questions for my MK1 manualoverdrive 1971 are as follows:
Having just received the Tony Hart service video for a birthday gift,he mentions the oil pump housing as a source of regular oil leaks,how difficult /easy is this to remove and refit new seals ,as on my quest to sort all oil leaks it would be helful to replace seals if this is not too hard.
By the way does anyone have a list of all regular oil leaks and fixes ,ie the most common places.
Obviously if some of these are engine out job then may have to wait.
I have certainly made good progress from cam covers down but still get oil forming around the clutch slave ,where the bleed nip[ple is although no leaks from clutch itself.I know that oil leaks and ends up in many different places ie,runs down,its just trying to track the origin.The cam covers and dip stick do not leek
Also around gear box,to which I understand there is a breather on top I think ,but cant see how to access this?
Also was there ever a list compiled other interchangable spare parts,ie form other car types Land rover,etc,I know some Jaguar parts crossover, a bonus if less expensive!
Lastly can anyone recommend a good product for cleaning the hardtop roof lining.
Thanks in anticipation
Mark
