If the Kyosho spur leaks, add a gasket and that will take care of it. You might also have some dirt or something that is preventing a perfect seal. Of course, you may need to add/remove shims to adjust the internal mesh because of the thickness of the gasket.
Yep, I've already doubled gaskets but haven't gotten to test it as I had to dump the oil. No dirt as it's never been run yet, and I'm sure the gaskets will help. Thanks Brian and AAngel.
