I've only been driving it for 2 days since having the clutch done!
Noticed a bit of a rattle today when it was ticking over. Opened bonnet and saw that my timing cover is rattling because its lost a bolt.
This doesnt seem too bad - but the fact that there is a significant amount of oil leaking out of the timing cover does. Enough that in 5 mins of ticking over i had a puddle around the size of a beer mat on the gravel :(
I cant tell in the manual - is there an oil seal round the crankshaft at the backside of the timing cover? or where else is this oil likely to be coming in from otherwise?
Ive pulled the cover back (its only a flimsy sheet on the sherpa engine), and its very wet in there all over the timing belt and everything.
