My driver's side engine tin rubber seal is all beat and missing part of the "v" section (or lip) that is supposed to interlatch with the tin.
Can these be replaced with motor in the car? If so, how much cursing is involved? Also, anyone have a good used driver's side engine tin rubber seal they want to get rid of? |

My engine tin rubber seal on the drivers side looks like it had about 10 inches of the "v" part broken off that attaches over the "lip" of the engine tin itself. In addition there were parts of the engine tin rubber seal that do have their full "v" part intact but were no longer latched over the lip of the engine tin.
I ran my hands around the rubber seal today and "re-attached" it to the lip of the tin where the seal was still fully intact. My car is also missing several grommets such as the oil pressure switch and CHT grommets. I see AA has a whole kit for grommets, but can these be found at 914Rubber? Or can I just fashion some from my local hardware store? |
