Hi there.

Ive got a leak from the "tell tale hole" sounds like a public bathroom winkle scoffing portal to me but hey..

could I pop a bung/ pin in it for the time being while a new pump/ seals turn up?

OR will it blow the oil thru into the coolant?


Thank you again BCF

What do you think it'll do?

Really?

It'll push past the makeshift pin OR force the media past the lip seal.

Just fix it properly.

yeah, I wasn't sure what sort of pressure the oil would be running at since its just dripping v steadily. Thought it would be more of a bath sort of affair than rammed in and acceptable in the short term

I intend to fix it properly, but just thought id ask in case I could minimise the wet patch on my yard/ tyres while riding and waiting for the parts.

ta for the reply.
