Title: kerosene flush
Post by Jsud04 on 08/19/14 at 06:49:33

While in have my head and jug off I am considering flushing the case with kerosene... I some home got a piece of broken drill bit down in there, got it out, but as a precaution I thought a flush may be in order? Center gasket issues?

Kerosene probably won't have bother anything,but diesel is less likely and costs less.

Before you do any flushing - install a bolt in the front bottom engine mount hole and tighten it down. Often when you remove that bolt the engine will seep oil, then stop when you put the bolt back in and tighten it up. You don't want kerosene or diesel fuel washing the sealant out of that seam.

Excellent point,Dave. Make that bolt long enough and you have a handle for sloshing..
