The usual oil seepage from the Cam black cap.
Again, can’t do much without properly removing the camshafts.




Looks like the Fuel Filter was replaced in the past but the holder bracket was deformed and the filter body was twisted and not installed properly.
Will try rotating the filter in correct position later.




The usual wrong quick fix for the moisture inside the tail light assy.

Someone drilled several holes on the tail light assy and as they are at the outer surface, whenever the road is wet, the water will be splashed back into the unit with the air flow while driving.
Also, while washing the car, you can easily pour water inside from there.

The tail light assy is not a sealed unit and there are lots of slits/openings if you look at the back.
So, drilling the hole is just adding another window.
If it helps in solving the issue, you have other reason as the source of the moisture. Eventually, you may cause corrosion by the moisture at the 20pin grey connector behind the boot carpet leading to all sorts of strange warning lights such as ABS, TCS, BRAKE LAMP, etc.




Yes, it’s leaking heavily….. The CL master cyl.
After talking with the owner, we are going to replace the CL master/slave/hose as a set.
I’ll check the state of grease at the slave cyl plunger sitting inside the CL release fork.
Probably completely dry making the already sticky pedal feeling even worse.


Continuing with the Health Check tomorrow.
