RE: Help w/ 428
By Jim Elsmore - 02/03/2001 11:14:21 PM; IP 63.201.25.154
We went to the trouble of after cleanup to change the rocker cover gaskets. since, when we started it up after a good cleanup. It would gush oil out at the top of the drivers side rocker cover, near the coil.
After we did all of that work, as you all know.. unbolt tops of shock towers, import brace reg body brace ect. We got the car back together. Then the moment of truth. It started up fine, then a minute later, oil appeared AGAIN!! In the same place!! We removed the coil to see what was going on.... The 1/8" oil pressure gauge line had a hole melted in it right under the coil. So, a 1/8" union coupling and $ 1.69 later. The oil problem was fixed. Sometimes it is the simple things that really make you go crazy. Especially after you realize that you could have saved yourself hours of work if you noticed the REAL problem! Oh well, I won't forget this experience. Thanks, for the help. Jim
