is there any way to take a leaking pushrod tube seal and do something (short of replacing it) to make it no longer leak?

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) Sounds like to me your car has a SERIOUS case of A.D.D. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) Push rod tubes, then oil cooler, then pressure switch, then push rod tubes all in 2-3 days

Just turn this into a bigger maintenance project. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
Replace the leaking seal. ( Or, go big and replace all the seals ). Change the oil, filter and adjust all the valves. Spend two or three hours and get some things done. KT |
