Check that flame guard is not blocked
A blocked flame guard prevents crankcase ventilation from operating properly, and means that crankcase pressure will be too high.
Symptoms of blocked flame guard are:
-
oil dipstick "jumps up" out of pipe
-
oil leakage from seals in cylinder block. The seals need not always be replaced if they leak due to a blocked flame guard. Repair flame guard,
clean engine and check whether seals are leaking.
-
engine knocks
Remove:
-
battery ground connection
-
fan cover
-
all drive belts from crankshaft pulleys
-
gear case.
Pulleys With Align Marks
