2f oil circulation question:
Oil gets onto the timing gears with the oil squirter. How does the oil get out of this area?
The reason I ask: I just replaced the cork gasket and rubber seal. After running the engine for a few minutes, the seal blew out of the front cover. And oil gushed out onto the driveway.
I was wondering if maybe the oil isn't able to leave and a build up of pressure caused the seal to blow out.
I used RTV on both sides of the gasket. Maybe I plugged a drain hole by accident and a build up of pressure blew out the seal?
Thanks again for your input
