Sorry if this is in the wrong place.


Okay so theres two black cables coming off your transmission, i think their oil cables. at least one is leaking oil. i was wondering does anyone have a diagram of where those two cables go. itd be a bigger one, and a smaller one. the smaller one is leaking.

so i was wondering, is it an overflow cable? or is it spose to go somewhere like to the carb(i know it sounds idiotic, but ive never dealt with a carb'd machine before.)

These ar the oil lines for the injection system, if one is leaking do not start the motor.

The large one comes from the tank under the back of the seat.

The little one goes to a small nipple at the uppermost rear of the carby.

Sorry no pic, but section 3 of the manual should help.

That would be the one, thanks for the help. i know found out why he had the "oil leak" from the rear of the tranny case. haha. thanks for the help buddy.

edit: i also think, theres a blockage in the big one. not sure. but i know it is getting oil.
 
Don't take chances, clear the blockage, the life of the motor depends on it.

If you remove the large line, the system will need bleeding to remove all the air introduced.
 
yeah, its a WIP, which for $300 and a motor that has less then 50 hours on it (still new motor etc) id say, ill stick a little money into it. ordered my leak tester today too.
 
good call on the leak tester!.

I would consider eliminating the oil injection system and switching to premix. then you know exactly how much the engine is getting
