Ok. This is hopefully as far as I will go.
 Having trouble confirming the source of all the oil on top as it is literally everywhere. Possibly coming from loose vacuum connections? Leak on the bottom is from my arch nemesis the taco plate. Pushrod tubes seem to be holding their own. Looking for thoughts on how best to clean all the crap off and out of the fins?? Can the oil cooler be cleaned or is it a lost cause? Thanks. |

QUOTE(loco914 @ Apr 22 2018, 07:04 PM)  Ok. This is hopefully as far as I will go. Having trouble confirming the source of all the oil on top as it is literally everywhere.

Looking for thoughts on how best to clean all the crap off and out of the fins?? Can the oil cooler be cleaned or is it a lost cause? Thanks. Some oil is over the tin, some under. I'd do OP switch, every seal on the oil filler tower and check the seals on the cooler. Make sure your crankcase is vented properly. Get the cheapest piece of 4' x 8' plywood and a gallon of mineral spirits and get busy with any brush you can find. The filth will transfer from the engine onto you. Find some plugs for the cooler and wash it with mineral spirits, it will come clean. |
