Default Re: What made you feel good today?

Hi guys,
those who know me a little know that i love my ford mondeo. The other week i wanted to change the spark plugs so i started and noticed that two Spark plug wells had oil in them and two of them didnt.

I have done a lot of ks in this car now and straight away i was thinking this may be a big repair. i left the car at my mechanic and told him the problem. i also told him i had just returned from Echuca in Victoria and the car went like a dream.

I got a call from him in the afternoon saying your car is ready. The problem was rocker cover gasket had to be replaced as it was letting the engine oil into the Spark plug wells.

I supplied the new spark plugs and when he said $350 dollars i was more then happy to pay that as i was expecting a lot more but didnt say that to him.
If i had known it was only a rocker cover gasket i could have done it myself but wasnt really sure what the problem may be at first. It turned out to be a win for me and i was happy.
