Blacksmith Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 From looking at your picture, I am pretty sure that your oil leak is from the counter shaft (the one with the front sprocket) seal. It will not be leaking because of an over tightned sprocket nut, but more likley a worn spacer that runs inside that seal. Those spacers are not very hard, and wear over time. On the subject of the sprocket nut, I would get it replaced with the proper nut, and the lock washer. If that is not the proper nut on there then it does not have the correct depth on the shoulder, if it has a shoulder at all. The factory nut is designed to strip out when over tightned and leave the threads on the shaft alone. As for why the NEUTRAL SWITCH ASSY is listed in the elec section, the small screw on it is where the ground wire for the neutral light went on the RZ street bike. The grommet that is missing had that neutral wire routed through it so the wire could exit the area with the stator wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey390 Posted March 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 I'm not sure if I'm just really unformilliar with this area on the banshee or what, but what you posted after you talked about the bolt, went in one ear and out the other... No idea what you are talking about with ground wires and RZ models.. As for the piece lincster was talking about, it is stuck on the stator cover.. I'm thinking he is talking about the rubber surrounding piece that outlines it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincster Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 If you look at your pix, see the solid piece of metal that separates your flywheel area from the sprocket area? It runs up and down. Follow that down towards the bottom. The is 1/2 of a hole that is part of the case. There should be a plug there so when you put your cover back on with the gasket, it seals it. The plug is a piece all by itself. What I am talking about is not part of the cover or the gasket that goes on the cover. If you want, email me your pix and I will try to draw an arrow and show you what I am talking about. Lincster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincster Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 just JB weld a quarter over it ... where do ya live at lincster? I'm on Ironwood and Southern, were going to sycamore this Sunday if your game? Oh yes, I have done that hill many a times. We are pretty close. I am on Signal Butte and Elliot. I used to ride in the big area off of Ironwood and Elliott before they shut it down. I can't ride this weekend, gotta pack the grease on my trailers wheels and change the oil in my truck. Also going to go buy a new quad for my kid, so I am sure I will be out riding with him. Thanks for the offer, will try again later. We are hitting the dunes next weekend if it cools off a tad. :flame: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey390 Posted March 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Now I see/know what your talking about. Will that hurt anything? If yes, what is the point of it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
"thenewguy" Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 why dont you clean that mess up and go riding for a while as see where its comming from? thats what i would do. how you fint the cure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincster Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Now I see/know what your talking about. Will that hurt anything? If yes, what is the point of it??? It will allow dirt and stuff to get into your stator/flywheel area. As stated above, it is there because when is motor was used in a different application, there was an electrical feedthrough that went through that hole. I would plug it somehow.
