So many oil leaks.
Even had oil mist out the windshield defrost vent! What causes so much oil around the cylinder/case interface? Pretty wet on both sides. Side where I attached the oil breather to air cleaner has built up oil on back side of intake valves!! Have to figure out a better way for head and case vent. On a positive note, 6 8 6 6 % leakdown!! |
