Mattmill91 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Any ideas on why some are dirtier then others... First time open since factory I would think... changed the gasket.. would any of this benefit cleaning? Or would that make things worse? Def some sludge up there.... but I bet there is a lot worse out their. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattmill91 Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 I just did the easy side this evening. Luckily that was the only side leaking like crazy. It had a big break in the gasket witch was hard as a rock. Lucky I have had a new sitting on the shelf.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 That doesn't look bad at all. Mine had that kind of color fade across the rockers too, I think it's just because of the PCV design. And yeah, my old gaskets were brittle junk too!

onespiritbrain Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Mostly it follows your oil change interval and type of oil. This is 7000mile oil changes with havoline and castrol dyno oil:This is an unknown interval and oil type:This is the same cylinder head at 3000-5000mile oil changes with top tier synthetic oil:I agree with Slart, that discoloration on your rockers is probably from the PCV system.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
