Re: All that glitters isn't gold

I had that happen once as well checked the oil like always before running down the track (it was very sunny that day) and I seen gold sparkles in the oil . Loaded it back up on the trailer went home cut open the oil filter and got sick to my stomach. The culprit was a broken valve stem no noise just a little lifter click on start up and went right away, no loss of oil pressure but made a mess. had to clean the block which meant disassembly. What a pain.
