A young woman brought her then near new Healey into the dealership leaking
oil everywhere - the front and rear seals. even pushing the dipstick up to
leak past it!! A quick exam showed the breather very carefully plugged with
an aircraft fitting! Asked how, she explained that her lover had done it for
her to keep oil from dripping from her air filter - a Healey problem so
common that the factory had promulgated a very simple five-minute fix. I
did the job right and while handing her the fitting that'd caused her
problem I remarked that her friend must know very little about engines if he
was foolish enough to completely plug the crankcase breather. She replied
inignantly "He knows a lot more than anybody in this shop - he's a licensed
aircraft mechanic! Works on Lycomings ..."
Interesting! A JAX sock puppet.... I never knew such a thing existed!
