Have an engine oil leak at drain valve assy. on the above Briggs 35 hp Vanguard twin.
It appears to be coming from the threads on the vertically oriented piece you loosen to drain the oil. It is tight. Has anyone run into this problem? Is there a fix short of replacing the drain assy? That looks more difficult than it should be… Kinda tight, not much room.
Thank you,
