On the 63-65 Fl models, that have the outside oilers for the cylinder heads, there is a hollow screw, at the top of the cam cover, that directs the oil to the cyclinder head oilers. Directly above that is an oil passage that has a welch plug in it. My problem is that oil is leaking from the welch plug, and I prefer, at this time not to remove the cover, for repairs. The welch plug is 0.25" in diameter. It looks like, if I remove the hollow screw, that I may be able to punch the welch plug into the area normally occupied by the screw, and retrieve it, then replace it with a new one.
Has anyone had this leak, and come up with a method to repair it, with removing the cover?
Anyone have a good source for welch plugs?
Thanks,
Gary
