xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 i think my case oil is leaking into the cylinder. if i put automatic transmission fluid in my tranny and it leaked would my plugs turn red? this would be one way i could figure this out if it did. Quote
peak-j Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 Why do you think it is leaking into the cylinder, and no if you put trans fluid in your case the plugs won't turn red. Quote
fck4strokes Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 My plugs turn red every once in awhile when I use certain brands of Racing fuel it must be the additives in them. Quote
98'banshee Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 My plugs become a little pink sometimes...... BUT let me ask you a ? what oil do you use for your premix and what do you mix it at? My plugs turn a little pink when I mix the fuel to rich, I use amsoil dominator (which is redish pink when mixed) normally I run my shee at 50:1 and the plugs turn pink when mixed at 30:1. Quote
87sheerips Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 Your bansh will smell like a shitty oil burning car if that is the case. In which you probobly blew a crank seal. Happened to me 2 mo. ago. Youll also see more smoke out of that side exhaust! Quote

Snopczynski Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 race gas turns plugs red, its normal. Quote
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 5, 2007 Author Report Posted August 5, 2007 Why do you think it is leaking into the cylinder, and no if you put trans fluid in your case the plugs won't turn red. it constantly fouls plugs. i mixed it 70.1 to see if it would smoke a lot and it does. all electrical is new, gaskets, seals, topend. used a different carb. i`m thinking the center case or cases are cracked feeding oil into the cylinder.

Snopczynski Posted August 5, 2007 Report Posted August 5, 2007 let me ask this, are both plugs fouling? How many ounces of oil are you putting into a 5 gallon can of gas? Quote
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 5, 2007 Author Report Posted August 5, 2007 let me ask this, are both plugs fouling? How many ounces of oil are you putting into a 5 gallon can of gas? for the most part its only the right side and i use a Ratio Rite Measuring Cup measured at 40.1. ounces i realy dont know but when i mixed 70.1 it wasnt much oil at all. i used automatic tranny fluid today to see what happened and its all over the inside of the plugs. its a much thinner oil. i`m guessing my crank is filled with it. if i`m lucky its only a seal. i would have pulled the cases today to look but this heat is crazy. maby in the morning.

peak-j Posted August 5, 2007 Report Posted August 5, 2007 Okay, your posts are a little confusing here. What premix oil do you use in your gas, and what oil do you put in the crankcase? Quote
Snopczynski Posted August 5, 2007 Report Posted August 5, 2007 The right side plug fouling leads me to believe a seal, but you still haven't told me how many ounces. Quote

xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted August 6, 2007 Author Report Posted August 6, 2007 The right side plug fouling leads me to believe a seal, but you still haven't told me how many ounces. i put in belray 40.1 every 2 gal i use 6oz of oil. Quote
Snopczynski Posted August 6, 2007 Report Posted August 6, 2007 i put in belray 40.1 every 2 gal i use 6oz of oil. thats 42.6:1 40:1 would be 6.4 ounces to a 2 gallon. Quote
