Oil Leak On My 03 Shee...

Recommended Posts

It coming from the middle of the motor on the bottom i assume..and everytime it sits..put a little puddle of oil there. Cant really see where it is coming from. Any of you guys ever have this problem? are they notorious for oil leaks?

 

What could it be..its a pretty new quad..Nothing big i hope..it runs fine

 

Thanks

more than likely you have the same problem I had when I changed the oil for the first time.

 

IF you have changed the oil anyways.

 

When I first changed the oil I removed the drain plug an dset aside, let all the oil drain out replaced the plug and re-filled with oil...

 

Unfortunately I did not notice the small copper washer was STUCK to the case, and it fell off in the middle of draining the oil when I was not looking. No way you would really notice this since it fell inot the pan I was draining the oil into..... lol...Then even if you snug up the plug you will have a slight oil leak...

 

if you emptied the oil pan, make sure to look for the little washer when you go to drain it.
