cam seal

well that narrowed it down :D

are they expensive to fix or hard to do for someone who doesnt know much about cars?

shop around. last one igot was $13,50. they can be done two ways . if you have acoulple right angle pick slide them up the cam get behind the seal and pull back. myself i remove the rocker rail .so i can check for ware on the cam and place new seal in unworn place on the cam.

yeah i dont think i know enough to understand half that lol, might just have to pay someone to do it....how long a job would this normally be so i know when i go get qoutes

oh one more thing :D

is there anything in particular that should be replaced at the same time and what could have lead to this seal breaking in the first place

well thats 2 things but anyways :D

theres two pipes on the rocker cover . pc valves they can get blocked and increase persure in the sump.the cam seal is a stanard oil leak spot they all go there.
it take,s 30 minutes to do a cam seal.when i do the seal i give the pc valves a clean. so probly 1 hour in a shop. they may also replace the rocker cover gasket aswell.

thanks for that mate, good to see another late nighter up makes my life easier :D
