Re: Cylinder head oil leak help.

Haha Well I'm not far off from that! :P. Now that someone got me thinking. I've seen the inside of a 350 before. And You're right it would be far more likely to leak anti-freeze... But I'm glad I found it! And thanks to some helpfull tips I'll be fixing the ACTUAL problem. Instead of puting all new gaskets($40 kit) in the top of my engine and finding out I'm going to have to spend another $25 for the oil sending unit anyways. Thanks to you guys. I can walk away from this with with a little more money in my pocket and a little less stress in my back!

Man! Thats way off. Everyone knows when your piston hangs up on a driveshaft and your carb rusts out it leaks freon out the exhaust. Duh.

Re: Cylinder head oil leak help.

Before you take off the rusted carb maybe check your muffler bearings! And adjust the carb belts.

Re: Cylinder head oil leak help.

Don't forget to check the tension on your piston return springs!
