Leaking oil around the Crankshaft Sensor

[R1chy99 0]

Like the title says, I've got a collection of oil leaks, 3 I think but the worst seems to be coming from the seal around the crankshaft sensor. Any idea if I can just buy the seal or whether I've gotta buy the whole thing & is it an easy swap without a ramp & not much headroom?

 

Cheers and all again

there's no seal on the crank sensor iirc, but if there is, replace it with a Viton seal. I believ its just a flat fit againist the block.

Best bet is to remove it (5mm allen socket) clean it up, clean the block face and see how you get on. I would imagine the leak may be from elsewhere and may creep down towards the sensor. Might be from the oil cooler, have you checked the area?
