Engine bulkhead plastics leaking water on top of injectors


Recommended Posts

hi all,i fitted the 3 piece cowling today, it was straight forward to do,i dont think they will last because quality is bad, plastic is very hard like it will go brittle and snap again. holes were slightly off too, where they fit the middle section there is a gap in them were water will drip under on to engine, i was going to put some rubber sealant to stop the water, but i might need to remove soon to replace no.6 injector, looks better tho! found out under the cowling on drivers side is were the brake fluid tank was and passenger r side was the pollen filters!

Everyday is a school day 😂 

Spoke to one of the guys who fitted the same parts he noticed a gap and super glued a rubber flap to cover the gap (he cut it from an old cycle inner tube) His have been in place for almost 18months now with no issues, so I guess it is how often you take them on/off and how careful you are.

Glad you had no issues
