80 SC oil leak
Trying to track down a oil leak. I thought it was from the right side valve covers but after replacing them I still have a leak. It appears to be on the right front. It leaks off the valve cove at the bottom front corner just behind the oil cooler. The cooler seams to be leak free. Any suggestions?
Thanks Brad

On my SC i chased a leak in the same area that turned out to be rocker shafts. After putting in rsr seals on the rocker shafts its clean as a whistle.

I didn't. Its quite a pain in the fingers, arms, back etc. I shortened the big allen wrench for the ones on the end of the motor.
Be careful not to drop the nuts or retainers in the motor, had one scare. Mostly they will push out when loosened. I had a couple with burrs that needed more coaxing with varieties of screw drivers and drifts at weird angles. Its easier to do when out. especially the drivers side. I think I left the top side alone on the drivers side for when the motor does come out, clutch due soon. Probably should do the adjustment while your there, I went back and adjusted the valves later and they needed it. |
