Hi Guys,
Have been having a surging problem on 90 v4 1990 motor since rebuilding (had cylinders rebored)
Using aerosol I traced the air leak to what i thought was a bypass cover leakage.
Having thought it was duff bypass cover gaskets, I made several attempts to replace the gasket to no benefit.
I now realise that as the bypass covers run so close to the crankcase split, that it is probably the crankcase that is leaking air.
Is there any easy fix for this without having to strip the engine totally down again?
I read on another thread a guy who used JB weld to seal the leak on the outside, would this be a suitable fix.
Appreciate any suggestions from you more experienced fellows.
Emmett
