I have an original 6 engine in my 6 conversion car. I have an oil leak at the stud circled in the pic below. I have tried to torque the nut on this stud without success. I then double nutted the stud to see if maybe the stud and become loose. I was able to turn the stud in a bit so I thought I was making progress. When I removed the double nuts and placed a washer and nut back on to torque to value it won't snug up. Instead, as I torque the nut...the stud begins to turn out. I have a bad feeling about this....Please chime in with your wisdom.

That doesn't look good.. It's time to split the case and fix it properly.
You could call Ollie's and see how much it would cost you to have them do all of the inserts. Otherwise try to locate some locally and do it yourself. I think either way the case needs to be split at this point. |
