Impossible Oil Leak-HELP!
#1
Hi there,

I've an oil leak, which I can't seal, its driving me nuts.

After rebuilding my engine: see project thread(http://www.306oc.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?tid=28909)

Its the oil return pipe from my turbo.

I've tried a new t2 gasket, A thick paper gasket(diy)

I've tried just the gaskets on there own and with gasket sealant, with both gaskets. Tried a different oil return pipe.

Tried just gasket sealant on its own

Offered both pipes up to a square, both were fine.

Every time it just drips.

Initially after rebuilding the engine, there was no leaks but after some driving and a couple of heat cycles the leak began.

Any Ideas? I've never came across such a w#nker of an oil leak.
