DIRTBIKEZ Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 What does it smell/feel like? Quote
lian Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Posted February 18, 2004 it feels like oil i use a synthetic so its not as dark as reguler oil and it looks like coolent but coolent tastes sweet and i know coolent is posionous its thick and it leaked all over the pipes but i know for sure it was not coolent Quote
Creole Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 Check your oil level. mine did the same thing when I over filled it. Quote
lian Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Posted February 18, 2004 i havnt changed the oil for a while becouse its a synthetic and i havnt been using it as much i think but i will check the oil ohyah does anyone know if you can buy steel oil plugs becouse i dont like to take mine off unless i really have to becous the threads are striped on the plug and doesnt like to go back in thanks for all the replies laltyl on this Quote
boonman Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 becous the threads are striped on the plug and doesnt like to go back in This needs to be solved. Otherwise, you can't change your oil..... That is bad.... Now, I am guessing that it is oil. You say it leaked all over the pipes... This sounds like coolant. But, where on the pipes did it leak? If you had one of the vents clogged from the tranny, than it could be pushed out of the other tube. Expansion and contraction of the oil could cause this. There are two transmission vents. One in the rear, and one towards the front. They connect together... Quote
fixitrod Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 I've had my oil leak there also. I thought it was my rezzie on my shock and it turned out I was over filling the tranny by using the amount recommended in the book. The book was wrong. As far as the oil plug, I'm not sure what you are talking about. If you talking about the bolt on the bottom where you change your oil, man... you need to fix that. You can get a drain bolt from the autoparts store. I bought a magnetic one for 2.99. If it's the dipstick you are talking about, ask around on here. Somebody probably has one laying around. You can get a new billet one for $20. Quote
