Hi
Hope everyone is doing well, I need some help please.
Yesterday I realised slight smoke coming from the exhaust so when I opened the bonnet and removed the engine cover I realised oil residue around the rocker cover.
Am I right to assume that the rocker cover is leaking around the seal hence the light smoke from the exhaust and therefore I need to replace the gasket (left + right side) which is a common issue with this engine ?
I don't think it's the breathers as they were done only a couple of months ago by an MB specialist but what do you guys think?
I will be using the DIY link below which is quite detailed, are there any specialist tools I would need to complete the job e.g torque wrench as the instructions below do not list which tools I will need or if there is a torque amount when screwing/bolting the rocker in place
How to ? Change Rocker Cover gaskets and reseal breather covers on the M113/M112 engine | FotiFixes.com ? A Journal of my fixes
The DIY also shows how to do the breather but as mentioned before they have only been done a couple of months ago so can I just replace the gasket without having to do the breathers?
Here are some pictures but not sure how much it will help you guys
Any help and advice would be much appreciated thanks in advance
