Try wrapping the threads with Teflon tape to make it grab sooner.  May need
to experiment a bit.

Hi all,

Got the H20 back, the guy rebuilt it, and it runs great.

I'm having a bit of an oil leak problem though.  The valve cover 
breather tube leaks where it screws into the cover.  I can't screw it in 
all the way, because then it doesn't point in the right direction to put 
the breather hose on.

So it's lose by about a 1/4 of a turn, and oil is leaking out of it!  
Just a small amount, but enough after awhile to be messy. 

Anyone else have this problem?  Solutions to fix it? 

Thanks.

Eddie
