    Thanks for posting. I'm in the midst of the same/similar task. Just fitted new oil feed lines. Waiting to borrow a torque wrench. Safe travels!

      No problem, thx for watching :) Remember if you end up stripping the threads, you can buy sligthly longer banjos!

    Nice job. You can also heat the copper (washer gasket) to become more flexible. It is what I do when I work on the brakes (there are some copper washer gaskets).

      Yes, Heat with a torch until they go pink and then plunge them into cold water. That softens them. Annealing. Can be done several times if you really need to be economical. If under high torque they will get thinner and need replacing. 11nm should be fine.

    Nice video 👍 ... have you replaced or rebuild your oil breather/filler ? ... if you haven't it might be the cause of your leak. On my 2cvs I've always had little leaks begin as the breather fails... eventually they'll blow oil out of the front and rear crank seals if not sorted 😂😂😂

      Thanks 🙂 The oil filler neck looks fine for now, but i am about to pull the engine and rebuild it anyway 😁 thanks for the advice though 👍🏻👍🏻

      Great ... it's always worth rebuilding or replacing the filler/ breather unit ... you won't be able to see if it's failed ...it doesn't leak. The internal rubber diaphagms harden and fail and it causes overpressure in the crankcase, this causes leaks ... they typically start small and get worse 😮
      My current 2cv has 54,000kms and because of a failed breather before I owned her, she pumps oil out of EVERYWHERE 😂😂😂 ...
      Hope your rebuild goes well 👍

    Hej løste det problemer og hvad sprøjter du med er det bremserens

      Jeg var desværre løbet tør for bremserens, så i mangel af bedre brugte jeg noget Caramba rustløsner. Men problemet blev løst, nu er det bare pakningerne ved stødstængerne der skal skiftes.
