So many oil leaks.
Even had oil mist out the windshield defrost vent! What causes so much oil around the cylinder/case interface? Pretty wet on both sides.  Side where I attached the oil breather to air cleaner has built up oil on back side of intake valves!!  Have to figure out a better way for head and case vent. On a positive note, 6 8 6 6 % leakdown!! |

Imma gonna clean it up and put it back in!
Just sharing the saga. Any idea where the oil at the cylinder/case interface is coming from? How are you guys with carbs venting the case and heads? |

My carbed 1.8 has a bung welded on the drivers side valve cover for vent to a breather can (in addition to the typical case vent). Not a drop of oil leaks (but my compression is crap and it needs a rebuild).
