In addressing oil leaks on a type IV engine I had first replaced the
valve cover gaskets, push-rod seals and while installing a sandwich plate
for the addition of an oil cooler I just figured I'd give the Oil
Pressure bypass screw a little nudge to tighten it.
You guessed it.
The darn plug was loose.
It took two full turns to tighten it up and after some second thoughts I
broke open a new gasket set and installed a new aluminum sealing ring.
Darn! guys when you buy a used vehicle from anyone it's just moments or
weeks before catastrophe hits.
I had been well over 1000 miles in this car and was beginning to feel
that I had things under control.
Just a fluke that the plug hadn't just fallen out while the engine was
running.
