This engine is for my Michigan Build, 2016 Build-Off Challenge. Needed to come to the "Garage" for some help.
Fresh rebuilt on start up, my first oil filter inflated, then leaked at the seal. Second try, filter massive leak blew the seal out. I have a flow probem. Looking for help. I must be building pressure, just won't leave the filter. ![]() ![]() |

Im a little confused. Is this a "used" engine? If it was a newly built engine, why is all that crud in the oil pressure valve, did they not clean the case? As for the possibility of oil from the cylinder migrating to the oil valve...that scares me. If its clean oil, and say it does migrate down...my thoughts are, the internal components must be pretty dirty to...
Just my thoughts. Good luck |

Aside from the fact that the cap was rusted in place the piston was rusted in place too. That moisture is probably not just there, you have to assume it's everywhere. The rim that the cap seals against is totaled. How will that seal ? |
