[QUOTE="Moseley, post: 628125, member: 20098"] Hi folks, I believe I’ve got an issue with a weepy core plug, the one that is next to the distributor. Every time I’ve checked it, there is a pool of oil inside it, and as it is raised up from the block, I can’t see any way that oil could get into it, other than from below! How are these particular ones fitted - do they bottom out in a recess and then the deformation effectively seals them, or are they just tapped in the hole until a suitable depth is reached without going too far? Just pondering options on sorting it. Note, in the picture I have dried the worst of the oil so that I could see the plug.
