I've checked under the rocker cover and they are clean, when I did both heads they had there welch plugs replaced and head pressure tested and scimmed. cant see how the oil/water mix is getting into the aircleaner and not under the rocker covers.

Thanks good idea will look into it

Sorry guys when I say I may need it, its that no matter how much I adjust the glass to fit the door I end up with a 5mm gap at the top front corner where the glass curves from horizontal to the down slope(If that makes sense) but is water tight along all the other seams. I've checked the door gap ar...

Hi guys

Cheers mate will check out wreckers for window glass

Hi, Got a problem with a ill fitting passenger door window on my 1990 Brumby, door has been replaced by previous owner at some stage due to smash. Just wonder if he could have used a window out of another model or l series if they are all the same, if not it could have the wrong window in it causing...

Just a thought could they have fitted an older/other model window glass or are they all the same. If any one knows let us know as it seems the top length seems shorter
