Is the baby powder a real thing or did you just like the idea how him making a of himself?
Id heard it used before on the 675 forum. It does work well.I want you think about that when you're sweeping up baby powder.

Dye - £6.20

Torch - £1.49

I can understand you'd rather charge on with Talc with time being what it is, and your leak was obvious in the end, but just for future.
ETA: Works on petrol leaks as well (but you need another one for coolant).

(Since this great thread seems to have finished its usefulness I'll chance an Asda question)
I went there about 4 years back, 5 maybe and they had mobil 1 at 16 quid per 4 litres. Never been back after clearing them out, but what amazed me was the amount of flange in there! Christ I've never seen anything like it.
Presumably you picked up your talc from near the condoms and I imagine there were even more around there than the engine oil?

being a piping designer when you said flange I thought of these first.
it wasn't till I read your second paragraph that it clicked.

You'll be glad to know its all sorted now.
One mistake was forgetting I had the old sump plug washer still in then filling it with 3 litres of oil. fk. Still I swapped it over in the blink of an eye.
Took an hour to clean up the old gasket that had melted onto the face of the casing.
job done. All back together for its last day out this year.

Do people really care about this?I've had the same sump plug washer for about 70k, it's never leaked yet even with 4k oil changes. I only changed it when I did to see what difference it made, which was nowt.
