The tank leak might be a more obscure spot than I thought…
I haven’t been able to pinpoint the location yet.
The oil light is coming on. Since I disassembled the clutch recently, I should suspect myself first, just to be safe.
The external oil pump looks fine.
All the gears mesh normally. No problems, so I closed it back up.
Just to be safe, let me replace the pressure switch. Actually, this is my first time… Looking at it, there seems to be some slight changes.
It’s seeping slightly… I can’t just leave it like this and close it up.
This one still works.
I matched it to a similar color.
Tightening resin with metal bolts → bolts loosen easily and tightening weakens, causing leaks.
I don’t think anyone likes the vague tightening feel of rubber or resin. It takes a bit of effort, but if you install a sleeve, you get a solid tightening feel and no loosening or leaks.
I’ll pull the plug and crank it to test. It clears, so that’s reassuring first. Now it’s time to take it for a ride.
I’m addressing a spot I slightly missed last time. The rear brake hose might rub against the tire, so I’ll take care of that.
I often use the “FIR TREE MOUNT”—it’s handy for routing hoses and wiring along a line.
And since it’s plastic, it’s lightweight and easy to replace.
It’s really useful for brake hoses and wiring.
It’s seeping gradually, so I can’t quite pinpoint the location… I think it’s the right rear, but…
Please bear with me while I puzzle this out.
