    78, 750: Constant oil leak.

    I'm on my third stator gasket and the damn thing still leaks. it seems now more than ever. It leaks from the bottom near the far left bolt in front of the case down to the bottom most bolt. I am using antiseize only on these bolts. It seems as thouvh the leaks are happening more around bolt holes than the gasket itself.

    Normally, I'd lose a tablespoon a day, but after the most recent change and gasket it lost about 1/4 of a quart in the night.

    All of the old gasket was removed with a chemcal remover, the cover was checked for flat surface, and there arw no gouges in either face.

    Permatex time??

    Also, could my bolts not be long enough?

      Do you have the correct length bolt in each hole? There are three different lengths, I think....

        Threw in new bolts... 10x worse... oil poured out. Turns out I re cracked a repair weld on the bottom of the cover. FML.
