There I was doing annual maintenance saying I'm so happy this machine is lasting over 10 yrs and still looks new and runs great...
All I had left to do was change the spark plug and I was done, ready to put away for storage.. So I was tightening up the oil drain plug... Thought it was "good enough" without using excessive force but I did make sure I cranked on it... After few minutes I noticed oil leaking...
Then I noticed the split.... I guess its not like a vehicle drain plug where you have to crank on it? SMH
Do you guys think I can use High Heat Epoxy on it?? Or is this whole motor a goner now? I only split like 10 days a year for a total of like 20 hours.
Also... It was the first winter last year storing it in the shed as opposed to in my garage. I wonder if that made things brittle. :-(
