1987 banshee leaking coolant


Recommended Posts

started my 1987 banshee notice a little coolant leak its comming from the one bolt on the very bottom of the motor not the motor mount bolts ,

 

the trans drain bolt, or the case bolts? if you have coolant seeping from either of those,

you have serious problems. Chances are it may be seeping out somewheres around the clutch

cover or the drain bolts on the sides of the cylinders and running down the engine?

pull the cover off the water pump area might be the water pump seal

would that then let it leak inside the motor ,the little drip is coming from one of the four bolts on the bottom of the motor ,it not coming from the out side of the motor ,

sounds like maybe the rubber plug in the bottom of your cylinder let loose, are you getting some white smoke out of the pipe on the same side as where the leak is?

 

if it's the rubber plug the only way to fix it is to pull the jug and re-seal the plug, i usualy just pop them out/ clean the hell out of the plug and the bore where it seats/ then apply a liberal amount of threebond,yamabond,hondabond/ then re-install the plug and let it set overnight. once dry clean up the mating surface and re-install....
