Thanks for the reply and suggestions. Apart from a slight weep from one valve
cover,
say about 6 drips per hour, which nothing I've tried to date can stem, there's
no evidence of even the slightest leaks from the other locations which
you mention.
Your explanation about burping / gurgling is a new one on me. I've always done
it slowly and steadily and at the start of the day it takes about 15
compressions
to get the desired result. So I guess that means quite well sealing compression
rings
I've long since learned that to get a fairly accurate oil level reading from my
engine, burp / gurgle IMMEDIATELY after the last flight of the day, then wait
until the next day to look at the dipstick. Works for me!
