Now that the drip is solved, a new billet plate? Cool, but here is what worked - thanks to Slits.
The trick involved thoroughly cleaning the "O" ring, the contact surface in the case, and the sender plate, I applied a small amount of clear silicone sealant to all sealing surfaces, including the holes for the bolts. I was very careful to only use enough for the contact surfaces, and now it doesn't drip a drop - even after a 30 mile road test. The silicone is good to 400 degrees F and will not crack or shrink. Oh and the bolts, with crush washers, are a 1/4 turn past finger tight. I also used a little extra on the outside surfaces where the mate for insurance. Total cost of fix $2.75 at the Home Desperate. Now I am ready to fix the bathtub. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |

I just happened to stop by here a year later. I tried to work with Mike, but that did not come to fruition. So, I gave my prototype to Jake Raby a long time ago. I never heard a word back if he liked it or threw it away.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Amazing .... after pressure cooking their "meat" for 24 hours, I am totally amazed that any oil would be left. Ah, the mysteries of heat and pressure.
