  • The engine is leaking oil from everywhere. It is 21 years old and I decided to remove the engine to replace all the oil gaskets and seals along with the timing belt and a new clutch kit .
    Any questions and comments good or bad welcome

    Seems like all the timing belts run slightly off the pulleys like you show before strip down. Must be the normal belt position.

    Been watching this series and I love it, only thing I would have wanted is to see some footage of the removal of the engine! Thx!

      ScinnerNo1 thanks buddy 😁 and ye I’ve had a few viewers asking about the removal but I didn’t have a camera or decide to make videos until after I had removed the engine. I will be doing a lot more videos shortly. I’m in the process of moving house so I will hopefully be uploading more often.

      @@AMSVauxhall Anytime. I'm trying to figure out at 0:54 the thing the dipstick goes into under the oil filter, is it just for the dipstick or it holds anther purpose? Thanks

      Harrison Edwards it is also the oil feed for the turbo. It’s clearer in the next videos as my one is rotten so I’m searching for a replacement

      @@AMSVauxhall Ah ok. I have a leak I'm trying to trace and I cant tell if it's coming form the oil cooler, the oil feed at the turbo.. or this bit at the dipstick. Hard to see without pulling everything apart. Thanks!

    Can I ask a quick question, what was causing the oil leak down the back of the block. I have the same thing but can’t figure it out lol
