Kenny Rogers is known in Europe but Willie Nelson, the other great pole of country music is not.
9:09 PM Don't know if anybody remembers the post about the defect valve cover. There was missing an entire cylindrical part of the cover that was done through injection of the composite in a matrix. It was clean cut like with a milling machine and put back on the car. Blow buy gas was coming through there. It has oxidized the exposed metal parts of the coil and the metal became brittle and part of it was vaporized.
I bought one online, in fact i bought two, had a problem, it was leaking, i did it 4 times trying different gaskets and RTV types and amounts and in the end i got it right.
However when i replaced the spark plugs when was that 2 days ago i saw there was oil around the spark plugs well. There are parts of the gasket that seal those wholes too. Apparently i did not torque enough the two screws that take care of those but i refuse to believe so. Blow by gas that has oil vapors or even droplets of oil are coming out pushed by it. I wiped the cover downstream from those and there was a film of oil, though invisible because i had some dust on the surface. Some of it was getting on the hot exhaust there.
While i did so i noticed the engine and the whole engine compartment was smelling really bad like oil and exhaust. Could be the reason i am "exhausted" at the end of long trips. Angela is not so because i breath more because i am being active at the wheel.
I took some pictures, wanted to post them here, it was about an hour ago, i grabbed the phone, saw the last picture on the camera app, zoomed it to see if it's sharp enough, then i attached the card reader with the card to the phone to copy the pictures but they were gone. Also some important pictures with cars with crazies that tried to get me into an accident tonight are out of focus.
