OK need some help to figure what I’m doing wrong on an SCV case on a 2440.
I have two SCV valves. They started leaking between the two housings on the top. I had these rebuilt last year by a local shop. They worked fine for about a year and then started leaking. I took them off and replaced the packing as between the two scv housings. That didn’t fix the leak. The shop told me one of the housings was cracked. So I got a used SCV valve and tried that. I had to switch the handle positions and when I did I replaced the o-rings on the handle. This seemed to fix the leak on the top of the SCV but in doing to I had to open the housing to switch out the mounting bracket. Now I have a large leak out the bottom of the scv housing. Tried replacing all the packings inside the bottom of the scv but that didn’t fix it either. Not sure where to go next???
Attached puctures of where it was originally leaking and now where the housing is leaking along with pictures of the packing that I replaced on the bottom of the scv housing.
Appreciate any help.
