Visual inspection of tightness and oil leaks



If the engine is contaminated with oil, or if oil consumption is high, determine where it is leaking. To do this, inspect the following places:

8. Open the oil filler cap and check the gasket for porosity and damage.

9. Check the crankcase ventilation hose, especially the section between the cylinder head cover and the air filter.

10. Check the cylinder head gasket.

11. Check the sealing ring of the oil drain plug.

12. Check the oil filter gasket, which is located between the filter and the filter mounting flange.

13. Check the oil pan gasket.

14. Check the camshaft and crankshaft seals.

Since the leak usually spreads oil over a large surface area of the engine, it can be difficult to determine the leak location at first glance. The following search method is recommended:

15. Wash the engine. To do this, spray the engine with an aerosol cleaner and, after letting it work, rinse with water. Before doing this, cover the generator and fuse box with a plastic bag.



16. Sprinkle the outside of the connecting joints and their gaskets with lime or talc.

17. Check the oil level and top up if necessary.

18. Take a test drive. Since the oil liquefies when the engine is hot and therefore leaks faster, it is best to take this drive on a highway, covering a distance of about 30 km.

19. Inspect the engine after the test drive, illuminating the inspected areas with a flashlight, and identify the oil leaks. Eliminate any faults found.
