SL blowby ?
« on: April 03, 2010, 09:35:47 PM »
Fired up the ole' SL1 today to give it some excercise and found that when I took the cap off the valve cover there was quite a gale blowing up outta there. Normal ??

If it fired up o.k it's probably not blow by, just the pumping action of the piston going up & down sucking air in & out.
