Help, head is leaking

[Rsxnick02]

My cool head is leaking were the plug is have copper spacer idk why

Any one have this before or no what causes it

The copper spacer is like a crush washer that goes between the glow plug and the aluminum plate that is between the crankcase and the cooling head. Check your manual to see how it all goes together. You may have just a piece of dirt crushed into the copper which caused the leak. Try changing the copper piece. Copper is soft.

Just be very careful when cleaning with the glow plug out. You really don't want any dirt getting into your engine.
