Review on Dorman 917 034 Oil Separator Cover by Jesse Azuse

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great Leakage stopped

Works great, stopped the leak, but be careful when installing, use a lot of silicone gasket with good oil resistance, e.g. I made this mistake by rubbing a thin layer on the block and cap like I usually do when using the GUP and I had to pull the motor again. It's a good idea to take out the spark plugs, get a drill and a socket, spin the engine away from the crankshaft pulley for a few minutes and make sure there is no oil leakage. Pulling the engine out twice is a lot of work. I know I was very mad at myself for not taking a little more time checking for leaks before putting it back together. PS Clean the area very well with brake cleaner or acetone before putting the cap on so it seals well and when you check for leaks the oil leak is easy to see.

  • Everything is fine!
