Mitsu turbo oil drain - nuisance leak at M12 hex cap... Posted by DET17 [Email] ![]() ![]() |
Indeed. Got the 91 TC all back together except my distributor (installing the pair of NAPA shaft seal - thanks Vern). Laying under the beast the other day checking a couple things...and noticed this leak. Dang it!
As I recall, I coated the new gasket with Anaerobic 513 I think it was; don't recall that I put anything on the pair of M12 hex heads. I know for sure they are gutentite! When I pull this leaker, I will ensure it is not TOO long (BTDT).
I previously used some Permatex #2 on a threaded oil drain setup on my Volvo 940T...and it leaked around the pipethreads, so I don't think that Permatex will remedy.
What have you had success with? I have some YAMABOND on hand, flex. sealant. Also the Loctite 513, and as well the good old white Loctite thread sealant.
After all this work, I want a minimum of oil leaks. Please advise, thanks.
