Hello All,

I've almost got 100 miles on the 122s since I passed my inspection (flying colours, first time pass). I've noticed that there is oil getting past the breather/oil fill cap during normal driving. I've replaced the rubber gasket and have painted the cap and the valve cover, but there is a pretty steady leak there. Why? How much pressure is in the oiling system? Does this indicate some other problem?

By the way, the 3rd gear problem was a warn top cover, and I fixed it using JB weld as suggested. Still not a billiant shit into 3rd, but acceptable for now.

Cheers,
Craig
