Your thoughts Gentlemen please,
I have found that I need to replace my lower rocker cover as the bolt holes had been stripped and the upper cover wont tighten down properly, resulting in a small oil leak.My original lower cover is the liquid gasket type...but the relacement one needs a gasket, now I noticed lugs on the relacement cover that I dont recall seeing on the original (its still on the van)..I cant find anything in the Haynes regarding these being inter changable....could anyone advise me on this..My engine is a 1.9 dw8 wjy...if it is only the lugs that are an issue..could these be taken of with a grinder...being careful of course..or would it just fit ok with the gasket..I dont have the gasket as I didnt think I would need one so cant compare anything...the part was only £25 incl postage so no real loss if its a no go..I can sell it on maybe,
Regards,
Steve..
