ok, i know this isnt a warrior forum but you guys are more help than any other forum. i stupidly rode my warrior with the oil that it had in it when i bought it, it has been sitting for a while and i decided to take it into shop to work on it. i took out the oil drain plug and 2 washers fell out. does anybody have any idea where they could have come from? any suggestions would be great
washers in my oil?
- Thread starter falandys1002
- Start date
I too have no clue about where they would come from. Washers coming out is not good though. Has it been making any weird noises?
it sounds fine when its running its really werid my friend said it might be from the starter gear? im not sure im completely confused
iv had mine off bfore but i dont remember any washers thats y im confused. but thats the only place that i can think of that would send them into the crank case
the drain plug on warriors are a different design theyre kinda like a cup instead of a normal bolt.
the quad is at my school at the moment but the outside diameter was about the sixe of a quarter not sure about the inside diameter . . . if that helps
One thing you have to remember that it is a 4 stroke and the oil runs thru the entire motor. So it could be from any where in the motor. There are a lot of bolts and washers in a 4stroke motor, small ones at that too. Could be cam bolt washers cam chain tensioner and so on.
Best of luck finding out where they came from....
Keep us posted..

thats what i was thinking, cuz i really doubt the drain hole is bigger than a quarter. It was probably stuck to the cases then the oil lubed it and it fell. Besides, a washer that big running lose woulda gotten something stuck or blown your engine. Or it simply wouldnt hve gotten out in 1 piece.
+1 Sounds about the size of a crush washer on your drain bolt. Maybe fell down while draining or whatever.
i agree with you guys sound like a crush washer for the drain plug and there so way in hell u are ganna get some thing that big threw a drain hole of a bike. check the washer to see if its soft metal like alum or copper if it is than its the crush washer for the drain plug- also if your dike leaks oil from around your drain plug than that a nother good sign that its a cruch washer. hope this helps
the drain plug on a warrior is alot different from a blasters. its not a bolt its like a cup the drain hole is quite large actually
larger than a quarter???? i doubt it. The previous owned could have still put it there to make sure it doesnt leak. I mean we are talking here about something as big as a QUARTER moving freely IN the transmission and coming out untouched. it just wont happen.
so u mean yours looks like this one
then yes the hole is ganna be biger so i could see it being possible now it has been like 7 years since i have owned one.
