Engine Issues


This is a picture of where the oil keeps squirting out from the engine. See arrows.

Dont know how, but I stumbled upon your site. In case your wondering what the problem may be with the oil leak, its your valve cover gasket, probably leaking due to alot of pressure within the oil system. This can happen when too much oil is put in, or it may be from just deterioration. Its not that big of a fix, and the gaskets (since you have a v-twin) will be about 20.00 each.

Thanks patrick. That is exactly what the problem was. I replaced the gaskets and no more issues. They were just old and rotted.
