Hi Ross: Is it possible to get a rubber gasket for and XPAG engine? This would be your best solution to the problem. If a rubber gasket is unavailable the next best thing would be to use a gasket sea

20 is a bit low for idle. If you haven't already, change the oil and see if it goes up a bit. Check the oil for little slivers of metal. I have about 50 at idle hot with 20 w50. Chris Reichle -- From
