[QUOTE="peterg, post: 35848, member: 446"] Howdy Chaps, For some strange reason find I can't edit my post, a decided hindrance for those increasingly afflicted with senior moments, anywho, it's no Loctite but Permatex type stuff in case Rip corrects me with a sharp rap to the knuckles. I initially started and rode this machine for several hundred miles with the wretched timed breather in place creating sizeable transition pulses within the cases judging by the oil exiting the compression release port on the timing cover. Not keen to disturb that case sealant, I quickly created the solution in the form of that PCV type valve which is ever so more gentle and kind to sealed surfaces and can say after a dab of Permatex grey to the case joint under the trans, this motor is dry as a bone 30 plus years later. Rip, I'll have to tell our dear friend Leo Goff that you've surfaced on the forums. He's playing bass more than ever down on Beale St these days and we have our annual foray to Bike Week where he can ride a P11 with an absolute bear trap of a clutch in stiflng traffic with no discomfort...easy when your ring finger is the size of most people's big toe.
