After spending five years restoring a 1966 solid axle TR4A which sat for 20 years, it is on the road. However, it is a short road! After slowly bringing the motor back to life, it appears to have good compression and oil pressure. The big problem is oil leaking from the cylinder head. I have isolated it to where the pushrod tubes go into the lower portion of the head.
I am looking for some insight on how to make this leak go away. I know full well it will entail getting the head to a machine shop and I know Moss stocks replacement pushrod tubes. The problem is that I find no reference in the Bentley Manual on the process for installing, and more importantly sealing, these tubes into the head.
Any insight would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.
