Re: Screw at engine front stopping oil loss

Somebody posted regarding whether the machine shop had
replaced a hex head screw at the front of my engine.

I think this picture verifies it is in place. Extreme
oil loss was the concern if it were not there.

I hope that this is the aforementioned screw and that all
is cool. If not, I'll have to reexamine to verify all is
well. Thanks.

Re: Screw at engine front stopping oil loss

Yeah, Bill. That is the back. I'll check for one in the
front. Didn't think I saw one. Maybe that's exactly
why I should double-check, huh?

Re: Screw at engine front stopping oil loss

Ahhh, I see why you commented, Bill. I misspoke and
called this the front of my engine. Actually, it is the
back of the engine. Thank you for that correction.
