bonkas Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Does anyone know if any oil leakage is a no no? Common sense would say any oil leake would fail inspection. I have a small drip from the front crank seal which causes a small noticible spot on the ground (20mm diameter puddle if I was to guess after a day of sitting) and wetness underneith. Not going to be able to fix this in time but I have been told I need to try make it to one of these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rislone Rear Main Seal Repair 500ml - 44240 - Risln | Repco New Zealand Yeah I have looked at this kinda thing but have avoided it as it is a fresh engine, brand new seals but there must be odd wear on the crank causing this, replacing the seal with another new genuine part and moving the seal a but to get a fresh sealing surface hasnt helped.

440bbm Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 all it does is make the seals swell. not sure how it could damage a fresh engine. ya engine builder sucks to have missed that, or you lol. did you put the sling washer back in correct way?

If it gets missed in the morning check, the staff at meremere are quick to notice water / oil leaks on the staging and track area and will ask you to stop racing.

Not going to be able to fix this in time but I have been told I need to try make it to one of these Rule of thumb is that if it leaks a drop from when you enter and exit the Scrut shed for inspection, then it will be a problem when staging, and yes we check. If it drips after a few hours then its not so bad, but anyone who knows they have an oil leak whether it be slow or fast should spend 5 mins zip tieing some form of rag/nappy/tray under the problem area. If the underside of your engine/x-member is a mess and covered in sludge we may fail you. Please take some time before the event to have a clean up under there. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncie Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I may make it if i can get a few days leave before the day to do minor stuff like remove the entire turbo system get a wof and refit it all..... i'll still bring the car if i dont i just wont be racing but wont be a wasted day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 You could get a drag tech inspection? That's what I'm planning on doing as there's no chance of wof/reg/cert before December. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncie Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 Well I just entered so I better get my shit together and renew the WOF. As long I don't blow it up I'm confident I'll at least do one Hail Mary run! It'll definitely be at least a second faster top speed I reckon is gonna be faster then I've ever gone in anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
