That is very wet mate. Might just be the exhaust needs nipping up. With it being new you will have to keep a check on everything & make sure its nice & tight......not like my throttle servo screw on Sunday :clown:

Maybe but its probably just a bit of poop that has been picked up & stuck in the oil. Check your exhaust bolts 1st as this is where it looks like its coming from in the pics. With it being new the gaskets will be still be seating properly with the expansion & contraction of the engine so check the head bolts as well.
 
o alright thanks do u no anythink about if its runing ok ??? if so will you plz look at the other thred on king motor thanks mike
 
looks like a gasket to me, i had same prob with my FG when it was new, the head gasket blown on it, jus bought a new gasket & slapped some gasket sealer on it, never had a prob since dude :)
 
Check your exhaust bolts mate.
If they're tight and there's no sign of escaping gases, then take off the cover of the engine and take a closer look at the head.
If it's new, it shouldn't be happening, but you never know ...
I hope it's a simple fix for you.
Al.
 
It looks like you are missing gaskets. THeres should be 1 from the engine to extension(can't remember the name of this thing) and one from the extension to the pipe.
 
best way to be sure, give it a good clean (use some meths of petrol if you need to) and dry it.

Then run it on a bench for a min or two making sure you hit high revs once or twice. then look for any wet bits, and that's where the leak is.

I have a small head gasket leak on my FG, it's on the to-do list.......
 
it seems to be runing lean evin thou i have richend it hight speed up and the low speed it this because of this ?? ian from mmr said this might be y is this true ?
 
get some rtv engine gasket sealer, and seal the head and exhaust gasket mike if yea ain,t sure how to i,ll give you a hand doing it.
 
alright thanks iv just took the head of and it is the heads gasket im going to order the gasket from mmr is there an esier way of puting the head on the piston ring kept geting in the way ?
 
just make sure the piston ring is seated right there,s a little peg were the ring sits in the piston make sure the gap in the ring is were the peg is, then sqeeze the ring into the piston and guide the head back on it can be a bit fidely ,
 
i think iv done it right well im geting compretion when i pull the pull start ill have to take it ooff agen to put the gasket on i wanted to run on friday to :(
