Finally getting somewhat settled enough in my new workshop / mancave in McMinnville, TN to FINALLY do some work on the teener. Just from setting in place for 3-ish weeks made a pretty big oil leak mess. Oil was dripping out of both oil, temp plate bolts.
After cleaning up the mess, I figured I'd try backing one of the bolts out to inspect the washer / crush ring. Turns out the DAPO used steel split lock washers instead !!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) I reinstalled the bolts one at a time with the copper crush rings and it completely cured my oil leak!
