Check if the input shaft is seeping oil.

I would be inclined to replace the input shaft seal anyhow as it is only a couple of dollars ( from memory :cheers: ) and no doubt will save you the stress of seeing oil drops under your car 6months to 1year down the track.

Look at the mess mine made.

It wasn't even dripping much oil. Only a small drop every blue moon or so.

When reinstalling the input shaft with its new input shaft seal, be sure to replace the shim that is located inbetween the cover and the layshaft bearings casing. Tip the gearbox back as you slide on the cover so it doesn't slip out.

The layshaft bearing is the bearing next to the input shaft. The inputshaft is obviously the big arsed shaft exiting the gearbox. :rofl:

I've attached pics to help you know exactly what I am rambling on about. :)

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
