oil pump gasket leaking now!!!

Post by Eddie »

Well I had rebuilt the oil pump a while back, I had tested it on a test jig and everything worked perfect, no leaks. I rode the bike today and I opened it a few times, full throttle, when I got back I checked the oil pump because it looked like It was a little wet around that drain hole, when I looked at the pump it was wet in 2 places, oil was coming from where the gasket is, between the top cover and the body! this just happened, it sucks, so does anybody have the link to gtreiner? I need to get a new gasket and I cant seem to find the site, thanks..

They are slightly thicker than 'paper' thin. 8)

If at first you don't succeed, just get a bigger hammer !
