Re: Well I found my issue from my last post
I bought a new gear, new gasket for that inspection window and a new oil pan gasket. Was really hoping to not have to do the whole radiator thing. Will be tearing into it tonight

Re: Stop Leak
So I threw some pepper in there and it seemed like it stopped. I also noticed that the outside of the radiator (the chrome shroud) gets REALLY hot after only 10 min of running. Any ideas?

Re: New Carb
I noticed that JR guy rebuilds also. I have two Zeniths and two Tillys. Thinking maybe have one of the four rebuilt and sell 3 cores to him for a new one. That way i have a spare.
