blackshee555 Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Guys, Need your help. I'm leaking fluid (by the feel I think its tranny oil) but I can't find where the leak is. It doesn't leak while the shee is parked but after a ride its all over the place. I went for a night ride last night and when I got home there was oil on both carbs (more oil on the right side then the left and on the pod k&n filters). There was oil on the engine, frame, rear shock. Now I was missing 2 bolts from the crancase cover (on the water pump side) I made it so there wasn't 2 bolts missing right next to each other. Does anyone think that the 2 missing screws could cause a leak, or is it something else. I have a 2006 Special edition Banshee: ported, cool head, 17cc domes, K&N Pod filters, V-force power reeds, FMF Fatty exhaust. My banshee runs very well but I need to fix this issue. I ordered 2 screws for the crankcase and also 2 new gaskets for the carb float bowls just in case. Any ideas????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackshee555 Posted July 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 what is your premix ratio? and you sure it is the engine and not oil spraying out of the exhaust pipes? 50:1 using H1R Thought about that too, so I bought new springs and o'rings for my exhaust where the exhaust connects to the cylinders. I have a small leak because I see the smoke coming out but I really dont think the exhaust is the source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take some pictures and post them as soon as I get off of work, I measured the tranny oil so its not overfilled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrockMoto Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 That shits everywhere! I say for sure fix the bolts, but if your transmission fluid was at an ok level then you either WERE overfilled or its not leaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
