Engine is looking great Mike. Wonder how many oil filler caps in daily use that are like that. My petrol cap certainly needs a new rubber seal, always smell fuel when near it.
I ended up using a double gasket seal on my 300Tdi valve cover cap, the gasket rubber rings go hard and leak oil vapour all over the top of the engine, the double gasket slowed it down a lot.
Love watching the rebuild of 200 tdi Mike 👍❤️
Thank you David!
Mike the engine look priceless.. thankx for your all videos
You are welcome
Some 2.5NAs have oil coolers and oil cooler thermostats.
Yes, but they are very rare!

Ive never been a first comment before🎉😂 now i don't know what to say
No comment?
odd question - is that a simple galvanized sheet metal top or is it stainless steel to prevent rust? 16 gauge? Cheers Mike - thanks
top to the bench that is.....
I just used satin galvanized steel
