The motor is an evinrude. Finally, weather is good enough to start spring tune-up!<br />Anyways, I removed the cylinder head cover to check on (and replace) the thermostat. No problem, except when I pulled out the pressure relief valve I forgot which end goes into the head first.<br />The pressure relief plunger is of red plastic, and is a cylindrical device with a flange separating it into two sections, one is longer than the other. I popped the thing out and had a brain fart as to how it was installed. My SELOC manual blown-up powerhead diagram is kinda fuzzy; it appears that the longer section goes into the head, with the short section protruting out towards the cover over which goes the spring.<br />I'm just hoping someone can confirm this so I don't put it in backwards and have to remove the cover again. Also, what kind of sealant, if any, should I use to install the new cylinder head cover gasket (note: this engine has a cylinder head cover, which I have removed. This is not the cylinder head itself, which I have no reason to remove).
