RobPearce Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Have you checked the torque on the studs? What engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyb Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 1500 Spit. I will check the torgue. Engine has done about 25k since rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyb Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 Panic over. It's coming from the rocker breather pipe which runs across the top of the stud and has dripped onto the stud bolt. 🤣 And I was looking for an excuse to remove the head and put a hotter cam in. Maybe during the winter months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what cam to go for. Fast road or a mk3 grind. Is the fast road lumpy on tick over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire_spam Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Tick over is nice and smooth at around 600/700 rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
