i noticed on my bike the other day that two of the nuts on the oil filter cap just turn and dont tighten ..only 1 is holding it in ..does'nt seem like oil is leaking if is a very little cuz i changed oil three weeks ago and still at full line..i called shop they said the may have to drill and make bigger screw..and hinted that might be expensive..my question is as long as oil does not leak out should i leave alone concerning high labro cost or should try to get fixed :??:
