Re: Small oil leak on cooling fins
You have to disassembly head covers, clean the engine fins as much as you can. Then star t the engine, heat it up and look where it's leaking. If it's clean go for a ride and stop after a few killometers and look for changes - you can obviously ride without chrome head covers.
If you have almost whole cylinder covered with oil, you and we are not able to see where it's leaking. Sometimes oil comes higher than it leaks in the first place because GZ can provide better acceleration than gravity If you replaced the gaskets, check valve covers and this cover that's taken off in third picture in my previous post. You can replace o-rings under valve covers anyway, cause they're cheap and it doesn't need much time to replace them. |
