Re: Another Big Twin Observation….

Thanks for all the help guys, much appreciated.
Have to leave the project for a couple of weeks, as I’m off on a little sailing trip.
Will apply some sealer when I get back,and try again. Failing that, guess it’ll be pulling the block and seeing how that lower seal looks.

When I was given ($10) the "Basic Gasket Set" (367453) a couple of days ago, it of course contained a base gasket. Might have been an omen huh? ha ha.

Thought about fogging the engine when it was on the hose, but rationalized that if water was coming in through the lower seal, the fogging might not have any effect anyway. Crazy notion?

Guess I could spray some oil into the plug holes now though,wouldn’t hurt would it?
