[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 228587, member: 3959"] You guys ever have a clutch cover gasket just go bad and leak like a sieve? And quickly, in like 90 minutes? Back story- Took the KX to the track last weekend. Had it there the weekend before too, right after cleaning the air filter with gas. Ran it out of gas midday, leaned it over and filled the bowl, then rode it back to the truck. Glanced underneath after 5 mins, and saw that it was leaking. I thought maybe it was gas and that was why I ran out. Upon more inspection, its oil, and looked like it was leaking up near the right side frame, by the rear of engine. The dirt and mud was wetter there too. It was broiling hot so I loaded up and left. Get home to a small oil slick on the bed of my truck. i shouldn't have done this, but I pulled the drain plug and let it drain for a few hours, then put it in my garage until today. Pulled it out, hosed it off, and now I cant see where its leaking from. I expected maybe a chip in the case or cover due to how much oil it lost, but nothing. However, it is still really grimy after hosing it off in the right rear frame area, by the clutch cover. But it dont look like its leaking from there. Maybe its the case gasket? I guess now that I've drained it I'll have to refill it to see :banghead::banghead: [/QUOTE]
