how do you stop a oil leak from the dizzy end?

got a new gm dizzy o ring fitted tha seem to work for 3 days lol

new rocker cover gasket even seal the end cam bracket

[autoworksnovasport]

have you used rubber grease to fit the o ring??

[pie]

no just rubbed oil round the new before fitting

[Damo]

Theres little seals inside the dizzy too iirc there not leaking are they?

[mowgli]

you obviously have a lot of crankcase pressure, either the breather is goosed, or the engine is in need of a rebuild

[pie]

Eh?? based on what evidence?

LOADS of xe and lets leak from the dizzy and have absolutely nothing to do with how the engine is breathing - if the crankcase was was pressurising to the point where it was blowing the dizzy seal - the dipstick would have to be welded shut! lol

There are two seals on the dizzy - the bigger seal around the 'body' of the dizzy itself and (as I discovered) a small o-ring that sits on the dowel that slots into the cam... check yours is still there, before you panic too much!
