K200CSR Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Just over a week ago I refilled my engine after it had been empty of oil for a couple of month and I now have an oil weep on the engine /bell housing joint. When I refilled the engine I put four liters into the top of the engine and two liters into the swirl-pot and then left the car unstated for a week. Does anyone know if filling the engine this way and leaving it could cause a problem and associated leek? Kind regardsCharles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
