My Comet exhaust valve pushrod tube always seems to leak a little. Over the years I have often replaced the lower seals which are OK for a time and then leak again
The pushrod tubes are the correct diameter - years ago I had aluminium ones which were 25 thou small which leaked very badly - but these were replaced by ones of the correct diameter.
Any ideas please on how I can get a good seal - have tried silicone instant gasket and some other sealants with little success. The trouble is it means taking the head off to replace these lower seals which is a real pain.!!
