Now that the crankcase seals have been replaced and not leaking, the pressure applied during the test has increased. As I approach 7PSI the manifold (rubber boot) on the 028WB is starting to leak. I think this is because of the cast in molded “bumps” on the carb side of the intake boot.
The plug fits well and it is sealed with a worn clamp that is placed over electrical tape to eliminate any possibility of damage to the rubber.
Question -
Should I put a little grease on the intake side of the rubber to stop the leak?
Is there a better way to atop this leak?
This site has been a gift to me. I can’t explain how much the help offered by the members have assisted me. I am learning new things daily.
THANKS!
