Jules Martin Posted May 22, 2000 Share Posted May 22, 2000 At Snetterton on Saturday I twicecame in with my R 500 engine "spewing" oil all over the engine bay. This was due to the oil tower undoing itself. Has anyone else with a dry-sumped K series engine had this problem ? And, most importantly, what is the solution ?

Mike Bees Posted May 23, 2000 Share Posted May 23, 2000 Not heard of that one before. Do it up a bit tighter? OK, a bit obvious that one... Put a bit of tape round it? Not altogether appropriate on a 32k car I know... Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfreeman Posted May 23, 2000 Share Posted May 23, 2000 Jules, I think this is the same problem I had with mine, went back to the factory to find that there was an o-ring missing/damaged. Edited by - pfreeman on 23 May 2000 17:39:58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
