[AT] OT - oil stop leak

[John Maddock]

I've used Wynns Stop Leak (Australian) with success. Takes a few weeks to
do its work.

STP probably has a similar product.

As I understand it, the Stop Leak softens & slightly swells the leaking
rubber item - in my case a rocker cover gasket on one engine & valve stem
seals on another.

Definitely worth a try.
