I did the rebuild myself and thought I had done a good job. however I found when I started the engine the first time that for some reason I had lost all gears apart from 1st and 2nd. When I could get it in reverse it would stall. This was down to the gear linkage being shot and needed replacing I did this last night and had all 4 gears and no stalling in reverse...... result......Untill tonight.....I took her for a spin round the block only to get home and find that the engine is dripping oil bad..... like I mean bad. I think that it might be coming from the crank pulley or from the base of the oil filler. it is a brand new pulley wheel (Aluminium one from JK) and the oil thrower washer is in the correct way. do this sound like I have to take the engine out again and rebuild or is there an easy fix... please let there be an easy fix.if it does need to be rebuilt does anyone have any recommendations on who to get to do it in Cornwall around the Newquay area.Thanks in advance</blockquote>
