Hi
I will be stripping down checking, measuring and reassembling my 53 Meteor engine and gearbox this winter mainly to try to curtail the numerous oil pump bypasses that its developed and pick up anything else that requires attention although I’m hoping it’ll just be gaskets.
Can any of you advise what are the most common areas to attend to staunch the blood flow?
I’m aware of the one under the right-hand cylinder which will be dealt with, with a grub screw and the one to the oil way at the rear of the engine between the two crankcase halves (Although neither of these appear to be letting by at the moment).
Any pointers before the strip commences will be appreciated.
Regards
