[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 362100, member: 13599"] yessir, since it has been sitting for a couple of months outside, with all our rain storms, I did that first - siphoned out the gas to ensure good clean gas + bled fuel lines. Just removed the exhaust cover (only a bit harder than the head due to bolts being in hard to get places. Good news - gasket is leaking - obviously leaking water into the cylinders. bad news - broke off two bolts, soaking them in penetrating fluid for a few days while waiting on new gaskets - then will GENTLY wiggle them loose (hopefully) After removing the bolts, it is obvious problem when the bolts come out rusty and fouled with exhaust carbon. did the best I could on the photos I will ensure very clean and flat surfaces prior to installing new gaskets. only want to do this ONE TIME. Thanks Pap for the help. [/QUOTE]
