Re: Strange leak at cylinder top

Cleaned it up a little and it seems that it's coming from the exhaust flange. However, it's not oozing or spitting all the time. I'll put some wd-40 on those rusty screws and see if they budge. I'm a bit nervous about tightening them, as they might break. And then I'm screwed.

If you do manage to get them out, try replacing them with studs and nuts. Less chance of snapping them next time. :2tup:

You always just wash it off and not worry about it too much. That's always a slow leak, whenever it develops.

Re: Strange leak at cylinder top

I just started to notice I have the same issue or at least it appears that way. I had the valves adjusted a couple of months ago so I guess I'll start at the valve adjustment covers...

Great board!
