Does anyone have a spare left hand rocker cover gasket pretty please? Discovered my one has started to come away and is leaking.

Many thanks :)

EDIT: Looks like I might be able to get just one from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120457060814 I don't need a whole set, so if anyone does have a spare, give me a shout.

Cheers!

I tried them Arran, but they said they couldn't supply that gasket alone. Anyone?

Might be easier to get a sheet of gasket paper and make one up.

If you can wait till euro tec October I'll bring you one. Bring some hylomar gasket sealant and you might get it fitted in exchange for beer...

Thank you Mr. AB, that is very generous of you and of course I will pay you with beer in kind as well as source you a replacement gasket. :kiss:

I'll pickup some sealant, anything else I need at all? Speaking to TT about this, he said the best thing to do is disconnect the A/C Compressor and cable tie it, instead of removing completely to get better access.

Many thanks :)

Yes the air con compressor is just unbolted and then laid over the inlet manifold without disconnecting the ac hoses

Get some wd40 and give all visible bolt heads a spray every day from now on to make sure it all comes undone easily. Include the bolts of the pulleys to engine block and the belt adjuster at the left side of the engine
