you have to know exactly where the leak is.
notmally after decades gaskets leak and have to be replaced.
Brake cleaner spray is what I like to use to clean off engines to see oil leaks, sometimes I will blow flower on the area to help tell.Wat can i use to stop a oil leek on my 3 wheeler?
As others have said-you must find the exact cause of the leak. It could be as simple as a gasket or a loose banjo bolt on an oil line. But it might also be a hole in an engine case. You have got to find the leak. Spray brake cleaner all over the underside of the engine and wash it down good and clean, then put newspaper under the engine area and wait for a drop to hit the paper, look for where the drop came from-that is not necc. where is is leaking from-sometimes the oil runs down a seam and drops off at the lowest point, so look carefully, back trace it if necc. You must find where it is leaking in order to fix it right.
u gotta find where its leaking first.u might as well just fix it right ...at least find out what it will take to fix right(gasket most likely although maybe its a crack) before you start trying to rig it.u might spend more time fighting that leak than u would ever spend doing it right.....and if you sell it it will be much easier to sell.
Spray talc around where u think the leak is will show u for sure. Buy it at a drugstore/dept store. When you know where the leak is then use whatever - but find the source first.
do an oil change,apply BONDO to the crack. put oil in......brand neww
