I'm confused, and could use some suggestions. I'm prepping my car for the runoffs, and the back of the car is coated with oil. I mean it's everywhere, and all over the carb side of the engine (494). The only place is doesn't seem to be coming from is the oil lines. If the o-ring on the rotary valve cover failed, wouldn't the exhaust temps be high? And the oil level for the rotary valve doesn't appear to have changed during my last race weekend.
All the ends of the oil lines look good, no splits or cracks, they fit well, the clamps are tight. There are no drips two days after cleaning the connections. It must be misting it out under pressure while the engine is running is all I can think of. Of course I can't run the engine under load in the garage. Do I just change the o-ring and hope? Suggestions, anyone? thanks Herb ________________________________ FormulaCar Magazine - A Proud Supporter of Formula 500 The Official Publication of Junior Formula Car Racing Subscribe Today! www.formulacarmag.com or 519-624-2003 _________________________________ _______________________________________________ F500 mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change options please visit: http://f500.org/mailman/listinfo/f500 *** Please, DO NOT send unsubscribe requests to the mailing list! ***
