<P class=EC_MsoNormal><FONT face=Tahoma size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma">I have a bad fuel/exhaust leak on my YS 1.60. It started just before my NMP header split but continued after replacing with <BR>a Hatori header and 821 muffler. I'm getting pretty desperate trying to find it. I have replaced all the fuel lines. I have snugged up <BR>the flange that screws in to the head. I have retightened the header flange. I have checked the valve cover gasket. I have checked <BR>the head bolts but it still leaks. I consider the leak bad enough that if I don't get it fixed by tomorrow I will have to miss my second contest in a row because of it. It really soaks the inside of the engine compartment on the left (exhause) side. Bad enough that when I run my finger down the firewall it is wet with oil. The engine mount beams on the bottom sides are almost dripping. <BR>Any thoughts?<BR>Thanks!<BR>JLK<BR> </SPAN></FONT></P></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></body>
