Forum,
Returned from northern Minnesota and have a question.
Removed and replaced the $25.00 valve cover gasket and was not happy with the results!! Tightened carefully and ran it for a while and oil was flowing all over the place. Applied more torque and it helped. Still the oil flows on the right side when the crawler is moving on right sloped terrain. After close observation seems the valve cover studs are not on center and there is less pressure on that right side which seems to be part of the problem. On the flat or slanted to the left it is fine. Another possible reason is a lot of blow by which may not help the situation. Have checked the breather tube and it is clear. I do not plan on rebuilding the engine as it runs quite well. Question is what can be done to remedy this problem? May have to redo the gasket with a high heat silicone material which requires special prep. Any other thoughts or ideas are welcome.
