1. Do ALL TD's leak oil? (score: 1)

I've got a 1950/51 (we're not sure-there are two titles) TD. The engine was recently rebuilt "professionally" by a well respected former Jaguar mechanic. Everytime I stop, I leave a 3 inch puddle of

Roger, you have something to complain about. While it is true that there is not a positive seal on the rear (although Al Moss has developed one that I believe is available from Moss) A three inch pud

Yes. A 3 inch puddle is ridiculous. A TD will drip and you must expect the odd drop here and there. However, it is quite obvious that the rear crankshaft seal/oil slinger is at fault, either by not h

Roger.... First let me say, congratulations for getting a T type thread going in this group. Second and most importantly I must agree with Mike, Geoff and Jarl that you do have a great deal to compl

Yes, Blair. This is all good stuff but unfortunately for the chap who started it all, it means that again he will have to have the engine dismantled for the problem to be seen to properly. More expen

I remember seeing a photo of the first TD off the assenmly line. What was so amusing about the picture was that the bright new TD, with all the officials and engineers proudly standing about, had a *

Three inches? Is that all? My 53 wins prizes for the amount of oil it leaves. Remember, Your car is marking it's territory. Seriously, leaving a puddle can be bothersome especially after paying some

Roger: As I understand it, the stock TD uses something called an oil-thrower for a rear seal. These only seal when the engine is running, so when you turn off the engine you get a couple of tablespo

Jarls' post on the causes of rear leakage out of a TD engine is spot on. The spiral cut into the crank can wear when the main bearings wear. Unless the rear cap is renewed (together with line boring)
