Rocketman 01-24-2002, 09:03 AM It turns out that the seals on my rotary shaft fit very loose, and my mechanic suspects that that is where the antifreeze got into my oil. I also found out that one of my pistons is "snow scored" so I am replacing that as well. Apparantly someone took teh engine apart and didn't put good rotary seals in the intake. Crank and bearings were inspected and are good so that's a plus. Just thought you might like to know how I made out....$600 later.... dino 01-24-2002, 06:21 PM Rocketman: What doo you mean the seals were loose? On the shaft or in the case.

That is what the mech. told me. We'll see when I have a look at the piston.
