k301 question
 
Just got the valves redone, new seals and gaskets. Just got it fired up for the fist time and oil is flying out of the breather. What is causing this? Seems to run decent and it don't smell like it's burning oil. Not just a little oil either. The whole side of the motor and carb is soaked. I have only ran it for about 5-10 min. Rings are good too. .

Maybe "valve guides"....????

put all the breather parts in correctly?

I didn't do the work so I am unsure if it was done correctly. (I hate paying people to do this stuff I just dont have space to do it.) Should I pull the breather out and see if I can find anything?

I was thinking guides. I cant seem to find them though.

Darn cover was on upside down!

you might want to make sure the inner piece sandwiched between the 2 gaskets has the oil hole facing down. just a small maybe 1/8 hole
