Failed "fix" for oil leak
Looks like I'll be pulling a cylinder ;(
The easiest attempted solution was not the solution!

Despite not being the original purchaser of this engine and the engine being a couple years out of warranty, the UL Team have been extremely eager to help troubleshoot and resolve. Will be making a list of seals, etc. that I need and plan on trying to get that thing off of there by next week. Hopefully, just the seals on the thru bolts are bad and not a cracked cylinder flange. I know I can get it apart - assembly might be more of a challenge ;0

That's aggravating to solve a leak... only to have a redo on the patch. How is product support from UL Power?
