40 ELN 1984, i read they have heat activated gasket. mine was sitting since 1998 and has a few little leeks at the crank case and it seems to be sealing its self the more it sits and idle (heats up). still bugs me it also makes a high pitch sqeeking noise when cumming back down from a high rev in nuetral. any suggestions will helpful. thank you
