3020 diesel

[Doug Harris]

My 3020 has a fresh rebuild and is now blowing oil out the
exhaust. Engine was broke in and has 25 hours on overhaul. Any
one have any ideas on my problem?

Give it a good work out....It's normal for them to Slobber a bit after an O/H especially if you used those darn steel exhaust gaskets....

Tim S. I broke it in good, I thought, and chored with it and just noticed the other day it was slobbering oil. Pulled off exhaust manifold and all four ports were real oily. So you might be right, but the exhaust valve stems seam real oily, weather open or closed. why?

The exhaust valves would be sticky, that's the way out. It may still need to be broke in a bit more,,what are the injectors like? it may be some raw fuel making the mess..

new injectors, but seems like exhaust valves are really wet when open. I also thought about breaking in more, just at the point I'm looking for a 3020 buyer
