Lucas No Leak . . .
Has anyone used the Lucas No Leak product with any success stopping minor engine leaks? Curios in OKC.

That stuff probbly works by softening old hard neroprene oil seals. The Model A has no oil such seals.

The engine leaks that are leaving oil on the concrete. Primarily between the clutch assembly and engine (I think) which I suspect is a main that is leaking some. Last edited by DannL; 08-09-2019 at 09:49 PM. |

DannL I would check the main caps especially the rear and center mains. It is probably time to remove a couple of thousands of shims. This worked for my 1931 Coupe. Good Luck

There is always a little oil weeping out past this "labyrinth", so backyard engineers are continually trying to "improve" the original design (with mixed results!). |

That sounds right. Saw a video this evening where that end cap was shown. |

It's kinda like we use to say about our old Harleys..."you can tell when it needs oil when there is not a drip spot where you parked it." Chap
