Need a little wisdom. I installed one of Chris's exhaust systems ( It works beyond a expectations!!!! ) and pulled the push-rod tubes so I could install new Viton O-Rings.
Now, I have two tubes that leak. I watched my trusty Raby Type IV rebuild DVD and first time, straight motor oil. The second time I tried a dab of grease. Both to no avail. These leaks are tiny; just a drop every 3-5 minutes... but one of them is dripping onto the header! Are there any secrets ? mystery goo / sealers to use. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated. |
