bone headed with head

DIXIELEE · 10-14-2009, 04:00 AM

i was dissassembling the cylinder head off of 295cc to get the valve seats cut and in a rush i knocked out the small frezze plug on the fan side
"NEVER REMOVE THE FREZZE PLUG" it is factory set and the case is peened over to hold it in. let you all know if i find a replacement.....

if you are having trouble finding one from the typical auto parts supply places, check with HVAC distributor. They should have a selection of "welch plugs".

Did you forget that little 1/2 " O ring that goes in with the side cover gasket ?

It is where the oil to head is ported from the pump..

That freeze plug is where the rocker rod stops. It has no pressure and could be slid back in and JB welded or epoxied in place. It should hold. The only places for leaks are the seals and the cover gaskets. The o-ring will also do it.
Be sure you didn't overfill the oil. 1 1/2 qt. only!!

IM KINDA THINKIN THATS WHAT IT IS THE SEALS CAUSE I JUST REBUILT THE MOTOR AND IT WAS FINE TILL I ADDED A LITTLE EXTRA OIL EVEN THOUGHT I KNEW THER WAS 1 1/2 QUARTS IN IT

if your cart is lifted the oil level reading won't be right, full mark is alittle to much oil and can make it smoke and blow some oil at times.
I'd be more incline to think the small o-ring was left out of the side gasket if it's leaking oil. lots of people assume it'll work just fine without it or don't even know about it.
