Hi Guys and Gals,
I am a newbie and need some help.
Just bought a Subaru Brumby/Brat with an EA81 motor and she has a leak from the crank case bolt on the drivers side (right side Oz left side USA). I have tried to torque it up, but no movement at the required torque so didn't want to push it.
What options (simple) do I have, could I remove that bolt and washer and then put it back in with sealant and a new washer? I think if I try to remove it I will need to use some force (perhaps my cordless Ryobi impact wrench) or is that a no no??
Any simpler methods would be great.
Thanks
Barra
