I am remembering a tread sometime back that suggested ther might be different sized push rod oil return tubes. I as be causr I put tubes from a 1.7 onto a 2.0 build. The case is a match but the heads are new. Why yes, I am having leaks. Excuse me, I will clean that up...
Any help? |

Yes there are two sizes. Put together a 72 1.7 and most of the tubes I had were too big. Went through a bucket of them to find ones that fit. Not sure if that is your problem of small tubes in big holes.
We had the problem at the heads. |
