Does anybody have instructions and/or a diagram for changing the O rings /seals in the pedestal part of metering unit on a Mark 2 PI please?

Oil seems to be leaking from the blanking cap area on the pedestal so i have purchased an O ring / seal kit from the "Brothers" in Lincolnshire!

I am ok with sorting the fuel / ignition timing and measuring the gap for the pedestal gasket shims but am wary of parting the metering unit from the pedestal, any (sensible) advice is most welcome!

Cheers!

Cheers!

I think you just undo the 3 bolts and make sure nothing moves.

hold the red plastic thing in place with a. Bit of grease if it keeps moving,

Thanks for the tip Colin!
