a little. i was a bit frustrated as i really need a weekend off this weekend as ive been flat out at work for the last month and have been working 6 or 7 days a week.I didnt fancy having to do my head gasket.

I cleaned the bellhousing up with brake cleaner and siliconed up the broken gasket under the cam cover for now until i can get one from nissan. There isnt any more oil on my bell housing after 80 miles so it must of just been the one leak.

Next job is to trace a poor running fault that appeared last week about 4 days after fitting my new ecu. Sounds like im geting a misfire and change in engine tone off boost and a fuel cut type jerk at around 10psi or so and the car isnt boosting properly. Its going to be something like crank angle sensor/air flow meter,fuel pump wiring or ecu or something. il try swapping my old ecu back in first. i also need to engine flush the engine and put new oil in it.Its currently running on Duckhams 20/50 mineral oil ( any oil was better than no oil to get me home without destroying my engine)
