Rb25/30 De Cam Leak? Need Help

[walky01]

- theres a video upon cold start fine as soon as i start revving and warms up, it starts, watch when i turn it off shit go everywhere.

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

yeah because that filled up with oil for a reason

I suggest you go install all the missing parts there

[Ben C34]

so get the bits you are missing and put them on!

[Ben C34]

obvious advice is obvious.

*high five* lol

All im missing is the cover plate though, if it wasnt run before all thats doing is holding the oil not fixing the leak at all....

No, you're missing a myriad of things, go look at the service manual page provided in this thread

[walky01]

If I put the plate spring everything on is it normal for oil to be in there ? If someone with VCt took the front cover off would oil. Come out ?

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

yes that entire area filled up with oil, when I took mine out (twice) to do my timing belt and seals, etc.. oil dribbled out.

If you removed the entire VCT sprocket/gear you'll understand how it works.

Im so mindf**ked right now, i understand from after writing the thread im missing parts, but why has it started to leak now, this is what im confused about. ill dig up some pics because maybe i never realised it accually had it on. maybe someone took it off, not me onbviously.....

[walky01]

[walky01]

thats how i got it. still missing everything but the 4 bolts that are seen on the gear....

[walky01]

[walky01]

I circled what im assuming im missing. And the other one past the bolt is that the washer or Oring?

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

it's a washer for the bolt that holds the sprocket to the cam

[Ben C34]

Wondering why it has started leaking now is like wondering why the sky blue, no one knows!

It has the washer then

[89CAL]

is that a spring washer? It doesnt look right. The bolt in mine was a flanged bolt (washer attatched to the head basically, the parts pic shows it in this style) with another thickish washer under that.

If it is a spring washer and a normal bolt, someone may have done a dodgy when putting it together.

And because I'm in a nice mood, part numbers and pricing (from Amayama)

Spring: 13072-45V20 ($1.78)

Gasket (O-ring): 13037-75T00 ($1.51)

Bolt: 01436-01011 ($2.92)

Cover: 13083-75T00 ($6.71)

Not sure if Nissan Australia will stock these but worth a try. It will be more expensive locally but
