Hello everyone,

I have a small oil leak below the TCT. I believe it is the outer gasket on the TCT. Item 14 pictured below.

I was wondering if I could remove the TCT cover (2 bolts) and this gasket without messing the with TCT mechanism. I would be leaving the other bolts in place.

Also if this does not solve my problem what is the procedure to remove the TCT and put it back? Can I just pull it out and put it back in?

Thanks

Just had this done on tues. by Billman. I think it was 2 bolts & the rubber gasket w/screen pops out. Tct just hangs there. Billman makes everything seem easy. p.s. careful tightening those bolts!

I found it is the inner o rings around the TCT. Anyone know if I can just pull the TCT out swap O rings and put it back without breaking anything?

The TCT cap must be taken off and the TCT retracted before install. But ys just remove and replace the orings.

Trying to force the TCT in with the bolts will destroy the timing chain. Read up on it.
