Was bad blow by - Now Head gasket
Gents it look like I have a crankcase pressure issue As I have blown out a push rod seal and oiled the entire rear of with oil leaking out of the push rod tubes, dynamo, and compression release seals. It is either a breather issue (which tested ok with the blow suck method)
Or I just have to much blow by for the breather to handle...
What are the ways to check for blow by...?
I have tested compression and it is 150 psi or so each side.
What are the other ways to check for how bad the blow by is?
If I use a D breather cap where on the bike should it go?
Why is it recommend to block off the stock breather when doing so..I would
think the more passage ways to get the pressure equalized the better?
Thanks,
Eric
Starting to think liners and rings over here (I really do not want to have
to do that now that the riding season is started...)
I also hate de-oiling my entire bike every 70 miles
