ok i was about to do a leak down on my blaster when i notest there was a oil trail coming from the cylender to bottom end the gasket is shot now i know i would need a new one but they are oil gaskets? so can i use the gasket sealer that comes in the tube the high heat copper one or the one you can buy from like atuo zone the rubber ones you cut out only asking because i have them in hand
base gasket

this all seems strange that a base gasket leak would occur while doing a reedcage change, or was it idleing up and down before switching to the v-forces ???
is that possibly the reason for the reed change, thinking the idleling issue was reeds ???
which came first, the chicken or the egg ????
and upload a pic of where this newly found leak is so we can better understand

If he's got air in the transmission, it's got to be leaking between the case halves in the crank area or a bad crank seal on the clutch side.
thats what i PM'd him, but it should leak out of the vent hose, not the case halves, unless the vent hose is sealed off ??????

did he seal the vent hose off or did it get sealed?
AGREED\/\/\/\/cole has it for ya

he sealed it when he heard air escaping from it, then found it leaking at the case halves right below the carb where he's pointing
so the crank seal may have been the original problem causing the surging ilde, but why no white smoke ???? or was there ????
chime in dude

i sealed the line ima try to give it a run to see if im still haveing the problem thanks for all the insit also is the clutch side crank bearing hard to replace and if not what i got to do to change it again thanks to all helping
sounds like if it was leaking at the case halves ......wouldnt he have to split the cases and remate them?
Its not hard to change and not expensive.

I probably would myself, but I don't think it would be absolutely required.
ok i got it back together absolutly no smoke nore is there oil coming out the trans vent tube but know it dont want to stay runing back fireing and all it will run for like 1 minut then want to cut of hit the gas and stays on give it a little gas stays for a bit then wants to cut off have to tap the gaS TO STAY ON
if its back firing that sounds like a lean condtion lean condtion comes from an air leak or bad jetting
ok did alot of messing around with this bike and i think i got it now my darn throttle cable is messed up right at the part were the cable goes in the throttle box i had the handle bars turned and tryed to start it. the thing would not start i turned the handle bar srtaight and bam it idle down sat there for about 10minutes idling when i went to toutch the throttle cord it tryed to stall out then it reved up a little pulled it straight and it idled down now when i got this bike i got alot of parts with it thank gosh i got another hole entir carb cable and all. so be trying that later. thanks for all u guys insite
