under pressure

right then, after the rocker breather blocked and started blowing oil seals its been one stress after another,

sorted the breather out,

oil leaks from sump and crankshaft oil seal's, done

oil leak from rocker cover.

oil leak from rocker cover. (yes thats two rocker gaskets in a week!)

then it leaked again,  :banghead:  :banghead:

so last night i fitted a new rocker cover, oil deflector, gasket (again) an filler cap, ran it for 30 mins and all was fine and dry.

got to work this morning an oil leak again, just took the filler cap off (engine running) and it was like opening a can of fizzy pop,

is there any thing obvious befor i start condeming the head, am going to pressure test it tomorrow if i get chance, its a 92 carb

any info help or pointers?? cheers  pete :

is there any air coming out of the breather pipe itself? if not theres the problem,if there is a load of air coming out the breather pipe and the oil cap still releases a load of pressure its more likley to be piston rings  :(

come to think of it i havent checked since it last blocked, :oops:

i'll have to check tomorrow,

i thought rings but there isnt the usual smoke, even on start up it's clear?

chers bert i'll do a compression test an chect the breather tomorrow,

it used to gather alot of moisture/ mayo in the air box so i put a t piece in line an a little oil breather to try an loose the moisture
