Yeah I have a feeling im gonna be heading deeper back in. I put it back togather yesterday with that brass plug as it was "and rode a quick 5 miles and it filled up the crankcase back up with 16 oz oil AND its just too noisy. it sounds like the rythym of valve train at idle "tica tica tica tica" but Im afraid it could be deeper. Everything is new.Pumps, Bores, pistons wrist pins, rod and mains, and even cams and lifters and valves, and guides tappets and Timing chain and gears. and the valve lash is very near zero.
Cost a furtune.
Im wondering about the new quill seal. it doesnt feel like much of a tight fit into the worm and it looks like there is room for two neoprene seals on that oil feed plug but I have just the one fron hitchcock. Hell even the
Thanks for the response guys ! I,ll let ya know if I find anything new. Maybe there is a missing check ball behind the plug.
