Trenton Tigney Posted April 15, 2014 Report Posted April 15, 2014 So I fount I have an air leak coming from my threads in my domes an the spark plugs are tightened to spec , any suggestions ? Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Posted April 15, 2014 Tried new plugs , Imma try the Teflon type an see if it's stilll doing it. Surprised cause the washer should seal it up Quote
sleeper06 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Posted April 15, 2014 I have seen the domes or head have small nick where the compression ring seals, stock head I was able to sand a lil domes need a mill but should just be replaced Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Posted April 15, 2014 They looked fine , but I'm thinking it might be the domes messed up but not to sure, I tightened them what looks like as far as it'll go before breaking an it still leaks so either the Teflon tape works or might have to get new domes cut but thanks Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Posted April 15, 2014 No where else on the motor is leaking besides them damn spark plugs. Crazy Quote
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 So…spending a few bucks on some fresh plugs is outta the question? Quote

Trenton Tigney Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Posted April 17, 2014 Again as I just stated I tried new plus already , I got 10 packs of plugs so yea obviously I did. I think it's the threads in my domes that are messed up . Quote

sheerider11 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 Did you tighten it like a man or like a girl? Quote
03DMshee Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 There tight for sure. Tight like a tiger? Quote
Trenton Tigney Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Posted April 17, 2014 Tight like a tiger? Tight like a grizzly bear. Quote
uman1030 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 The crush washer on the spark plug if tightened correctly should keep it from leaking I would think? Unless, the surface the crush washer contacts is blemished in some way so it cant seal.. Quote
