Hi guys I am new to motorcycles and working on them. I just got my first bike it is a 1975 cb200t. I am having a problem with oil leaking from the bolts in the valve cover.
I realized there were no crush washers so I put those on there and it helped stop the leak from all the bolts except one. The bolt on the right back closest to you is still leaking from the top of the bolt. Now I did notice that the nuts on the left side when tightened go further down the bolts than the ones on the right. The nuts on the right side when tightened barely sit flush with the bolt.
The leak is not coming from the gasket it is seeping out from the top of the bolt. Like I said I am new to this so please help with any tips and ideas on how to fix this thanks!
