[QUOTE="viseversa101, post: 202948, member: 3131"] So last week I picked up an 89 kx125. Long story short it died and I noticed milky white goo seaping out by the kick start. Today I pulled the head and found the bottom head gasket had been leaking quite some time the studs were pretty rusty. And a assumed it to be a bad gasket. The piston is shot and going to be replaced also. Total top end overhaul. However I'm scared of the goo inside the case. I mean sticky goo too. Looking for some advice here to avoid redoing this again? Do I check the impeller and gaskets also? Am I going about this the right way? How do I properly flush the case? Or do I need to open it? ANY advice is much lyrics appreciated in advance as this is my first bike. I've already picked up a manual and have been thru it inside and out up to chapter 8 thus far. [/QUOTE]
