Default I have a problem.

I’ve never written to anyone before about personal problems, but I really thought that my page followers could give me some advice on what could be a crucial decision. I’ve suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me. The usual signs… phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says “Just some friends from work, you don’t know them.” I always stay awake to look out for her taxi coming home, but she always walks down the street as if someone dropped her off from around the corner. Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife. I think deep down I just didn’t want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her. I decided I would park my Harley Davidson motorcycle outside next to the garage and then hide behind it so I could get a good view of the whole street when she came home. It was at that moment, crouching behind my bike, that I noticed that the valve covers on my engine seemed to be leaking a little oil. Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the dealer?

Personally I would say give it a go yourself Tommy, if you fail you can then go to the dealer

If the gasket is still useable I would recommend

Hylomar – Non-Setting Compounds

However if the gasket is badly damaged then the following can be used instead of a conventional gasket

Hylomar – Silicone Sealants

Best of luck

Tommy I forgot to mention that to clean the old gasket material off the mating surfaces you could use the wifes underclothes and nail varnish remover as she will no longer be needing them
