Title: Oil leak
Post by: FJ fan on August 31, 2014, 04:57:37 AM
Hi guys, I have just finished a top to bottom rebuild of my 1200, it starts and runs great but leaks oil from between the two head studs and nut on the far right hand side. Have I forgotten something ?

Did you put the copper washers under those head nuts?

Did you replace the rubber seals between the head and cylinder?
