aaytay, thanks for that picture, maybee thats what happened to mine, the plate was upside down? When I pulled the cover off there was a good amount of oil in there so maybee that was the problem, other than that the motor runs great , it has a new crank, rod and piston. When the new gaskets come in the mail and its all back together, I will be sure to let you guys know how it turned out.Thanks again
