This is just one of the many things we find on scoobs brought into the clinic.






This is a picture of a brand new mod we have never seen before, can you guess what it is??




It's a bespoke leaking rocker gasket drainage system!

As you can see this has been fabricated from something slightly thicker than baco foil.

You can see in the design how little flanges have been hammerd into it to divert the oil away from the exhaust system leaving the driver totally unaware that he has a major oil leak and some roman aquaducting fitted to his car!

The thing that makes us laugh the most is the time and effort that went into this would of been better spent replacing the gasket correctly in the first place!


Some people eh!

 

that is shocking! some right bodgers about init

 

good god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Oh dear !!!!

 

is that a clinic mod to be modded and launched

mind you, you say its cheaper to replace the gasket...

how much is a gasket, and how much is the labour...


bet the tin plates cheaper!!

lol

Mart

stick it on ebay bound to be a buyer

awesome, do you do it in carbon fibre O.o

 

Looks like a piece of printing plate to me I have fabricated similar devices to catch and drain away water from faulty air conditioning units before now And one of the best uses was to create a shelf in a plate oven (5' tall but only 6" wide) to cook mini frozen pizzas on night shift

 

This mod is usually fitted just above the turbo not only to stop oil dripping onto turbo, but when a small family size chicken is placed on tray a trip of about 200 miles will find the chicken just about cooked and well baisted.

 

Now that's an Idea!

 

that was my idea in the first place, all royaltys to me

Mart

 

LOL with a few modifications you could start selling those items......saves getting the gaskets done...

 

what ? havn't you all got one on your car already ??

 

Come on now Adam, Own up & stop trying to make this look like a Customer Modification !!!

BBT for an epic bodge! The leaking rocker gasket guttering mod!

 

lol, mmm, im trying to decided if this trumps the one that had been patched up with gobbo to stop it leaking?

 

damn rumbled lol

 

Speechless!

 

On a more positive note, it shows that good old British ingenuity and engineering is still alive

 

Can't see the problem, nice bit of panel beating that, you should tell kev to take him on in the body shop.

 

They are selling them in different colours on ebay!

 

Add a return to sump line

 

a 12£ gasket and less effort would have fixed that!

 

Redneck bodge
