help my 18rg. (oil out of head) Tue, 20 September 2005 08:03 Go to previous message
well its been about 1-2 months since Ive had the motor all back together, its been running great. till i got my roadworthy, had it sit for a week or two.

One afternoon all of a sudden it starts pissing oil out of the head. just behind the timing cover where the engine number is.

We couldn't find what it was so the head came off, sure we found the head gasket we had didn't seem to sit right over the high pressure oil gallery.

So we got a new ACL gasket, its all been put back together, fired up. and yet again, oil pissing out the head. And the head has been fully recoed.

I'm quite lost as to wat it is.


also a few questions.

my first DUROPRO VRS kit stated torque settings of 64ft lb, as does the GREEN BOOK.

now this ACL gasket which says 18RG, states 88 FT LB. Ive read this heads crack after like 70.


please help me guys thanks in advance
