I drive my car everyday  Group: Members Posts: 8,336 Joined: 8-May 03 From: Tulsa, Ok. Member No.: 666  |
I've never had one leak before, but this one does. The gasket kit came with a flat aluminum washer that I used. Yesterday, while looking in my gasket box for a distributor shaft seal for my car, I found a oil valve crush type washer. My Q is: Is there oil in the relief valve cavity or does it drain back to the bottom of the case? Do I have to drain the oil to change the washer?
Thanks. |

yes, you can have a small oil leak from there. High Performance House sell the large crush washer. I bet many of the other "usual" places sell them too. You need a big bladed screw driver to remove and install the plug.
