[T3] Re: leaky pushrods

["Rustad, James R" <James.Rustad@pnl.gov>]

<x-charset utf-8>Well, it was unusual because it wasnt the pushrod tubes.
 
there was a massive leak from the oil cooler and
it was draining down the case.  I blamed the pushrod tubes
because in my recent type 4 rebuild I didnt get them pushed
in all the way and the same thing happened.
 
I remember a recent post by Jim A. that you had to be
careful which seals to use on the oil cooler, as the
standard type 1 gasket set gives you several
choices.
 
That sent a pang of anxiety through me at the time.
 
Jim, I could not find that post--I think you said you
could guide the uninitiated to the correct choice?
Its a 71 FI engine.
 
Thanks!
