mhw1972 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi I have noticed a small leak which i think may be the sump gasket on my focus 1.6lx mk2 2006. Is it a diificult job to replace the gasket - can anyone describe the procedure? Many thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 have you cleaned the area to confirm it is the sump gasket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhw1972 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 I've cleaned the area tonight and tightened the sump bolts to see if that addresses the problem. It's only a very tiny amount of oil and i'm confident it's not coming down the side of the engine. I'll give it a couple of days and see if it's improved.
