Chain housing leak
Did my 72 E stock rebuild using Wayne's book. Replaced the original magnesium chain housings and covers with aluminum as suggested. Seems like I have an oil leak at the chain housing/case seal
Engine runs great, thanks Wayne! But any tips on how to fix the leak? Is there a way to do it without disturbing the timing, or should I just bite the bullet and start over. I used the gaskets dry as recommended. Should I use a sealant? Should I have the housing surfaces machined? Any and all advice appreciated. |
