"Hi,
I need some help to diagnose a problem with an old GM471 I recently inherited.
It blows a lot of oil and fumes from the main pipe that comes from the governor. It also has a oil leak from the front left corner of where the head and block meet, which became a water leak after I cleaned the small vent pipes.
It doesn't appear to have much air pressure leaving from the dipstick or appear to be burning oil.
Is it the blower seals / head gasket / freeze plugs or a combination?
I also wanted to know if a replacement starter solenoid switch are available. This model has the separate solenoid that is operated by a foot pedal.
Thanks"
