Spec 3 engine leaking.

[rakin]

Hey guys i really need ur help!

 

My spec 3 leaked out black colored oil underneath the engine, wasnt sure it is e/o or not. It leaks near the side stand. Can anyone tell me wat is the prob? Thanks

yeah leak always at side stand...where else..haha..but side stand dont leak oil man..

thats definitely engine lub...sometimes too much chain lube results in a wet side stand too...

 

clean your bike thoroughly and check for leaks on every ride..u should be able to spot where it comes from..

maybe from water pump oil seal...or maybe the engine oil nut screw there...bottom engine cover will crack if everytime engine oil change u over tighten the nut..

OR, could be drive shaft seal leaking. The place where the shaft (attached to the front sprocket) exits the engine casing. Shot bearings, old seal, overtightening of chain may lead to that. Best to bring to a trusted mech or some one familiar with S4 to have a look at it.

 

Wash the suspect area clean of any oil stains, then note where it comes from the next time you ride.

 

I had the same thing happen on my previous bike.

 

If oil appears only after you lube the chain......well, there you have your answer.

Guys i went to tune in motors at yishun, they say leave the bike for two days... Wtf??? Den i went to brother motors which is just next to it. The mech just perp underneath and figured out so fast.. It was the shaft oil seal that had worn off.. It cost me $20 thats all... Hahaha
