1. Possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: "Jen/Scott" <jsloan798@earthlink.net>; Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2003 22:14:42 -0800; Well it looks like I may have a dilemma in my project. It seems as though there is a leak near the exhaust manifold on the drivers side. It is a pretty slow and minor oil leak that leaks onto the hea; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00052.html (8,223 bytes)
2. Re: Possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: Carmods@aol.com; Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2003 09:02:17 EST; Hi Scott, Oil leak I would look very closely at your head bolt and valve cover bolts again for the leak. When the oil is hot, it doesn't leave much of a track. Try re-torque the head bolts before you; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00054.html (7,873 bytes)
3. RE: Possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: "Jen/Scott" <jsloan798@earthlink.net>; Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 07:14:45 -0800; Well, I unbolted the header from the head, and sure enough, it is oily inside of the exhaust port. I can only assume that the one exhaust valve needs a new seal. This is a major blow to me because th; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00074.html (9,105 bytes)
4. RE: Possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: Theo Smit <theo.smit@dynastream.com>; Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 08:38:34 -0700; You can remove a single valve spring and seal by putting a compressed-air fitting in place of the spark plug, using compressed air to hold the valves up, and then using a lever type valve-spring comp; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00075.html (8,165 bytes)
5. RE: possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: "Tom Witt" <wittsend@jps.net>; Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 09:21:17 -0800; A couple of things first. Did you test the compression in that cylinder (and the others)? It could be a bad ring(s). Also, as you stated it maybe a bad head gasket. If the compression is near equal; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00076.html (8,997 bytes)

(score: 1): Author: Steve Laifman <SLaifman@socal.rr.com>; Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 09:37:08 -0800; I believe you might want to bring the piston in that cylinder to near the top of it's stroke. In case of a compressure pressure failure the valve will not drop to the bottom of the bore in a BDC cyl; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00077.html (8,779 bytes)
7. RE: Possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: Tom Hall <modtiger@comcast.net>; Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 12:59:03 -0800; A few comments: First Tom's rope trick works much better if you draw the piston down the cylinder, install several inches of a soft rope, and then raise the piston until it stops. This generally give; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00078.html (9,099 bytes)
8. Re: Possible disaster??? (score: 1): Author: Drmoonstone@aol.com; Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 18:12:20 EST; Just a question about Scott's oil leak problem. If the rings are bad as suggested in one answer would this not be evident by blue smoke. With the amount of oil inside the header it would seem that sm; /html/tigers/2003-12/msg00079.html (7,433 bytes)
