I found quite a bit of sludge inside the valve
cover of mine, but then it had been running
without a thermostat so not surprising. The
sludge on top is what promped me to open up
the bottom end. There it was clean as a
whistle, but when I put the pan back on it
began leaking like a sieve at the front of the
pan or bottom of the front cover - couldn't tell
which! I sort of suspected that the 'crankshaft
seal oil retainer palte' (6 100 D) which sort of
'floats' in there got disturbed so I pulled it out
and used new seals/gaskets on it wilh a
liberal amount of Permatex. So I'm anxious to
get her running to see if the oil leak has gone
away. I didn't leave the front cover loose 'till
the crank pulley was in the seal because I
used Permatex on that cover too. I don't think
that cover can move around much anyway with
the stud and all the bolts. Hope I got by with it.
We'll see. I used a new crankshaft pulley as
the old one had a crank ear broken off and the
seal groove was pretty bad.
