Hi All,
Have a leak/mist coming from the rocker gasket, sourced a new composite gasket, used Loctite gasket sealent on the cover side and grease on the head side but it's still there. Engine has a bit of blowby, am going to remove and clean the backfire device and see if that reduces some pressure. Rebuild at the moment I do t think is an option financially.
What are people's views on composite/cork or indeed silicone gaskets for this application?
Have put two covers on a sheet of glass and both are high on the straight/thermostat side, can get the smallest feeler gauge in there but I don't think there were ever 100%.
Thanks all!
