My 4A has developed and oil leak round the rear crankcase seal. I'm advised
that it's very likely due to crankcase pressure not being vented properly
via the ancient PCV valve and I should try fitting a TR3 or 4 vent pipe
underneath the fuel pump.( #39 on the exploded engine view.)
None of the usual suspects seem to have one on the shelf.
Has anyone got a spare hanging round their garage they have no use for that
I could buy? It would involve posting it to France where I live but it might
save me from having to pull the engine!




 Or post it to me and I'll hand carry it over to Brittany, if you're going,
David?
