On 1/16/13 at 14:15 I posted a problem with my SA with coolant in the oil. After reading all the comments I checked the compression dry and wet with a warm engine. They were 100, 100, 100, 100 dry and 115 acrss wet. I pulled the pan and looked for antifreeze around the sleeves-nothing. Then I put a piece of formica under the engine for a week and waited. Still no antifreeze. Removed the head. Head looks good and is not warped. No Cracks. On the valve train I noticed two of the valve lever adjusting screws were noticeable more warn than the others. One was stuck to the push rod when I removed the valve lever assembly. I would like to replace the two screws but don't know where to purchase them. Can someone help me there with a phone number??
Replacing head-I will clean head and block thouroughly and wipe with brake cleaner, spray the gasket both sides with Permatex Hi- Tack sealer and torque in 20 increments to 80 lbs. Warm engine for 1/2 hour, readjust valves and retorque. What have I forgot???
