Oil drops accumulate underneath the starter and dip onto the frame and ground. I can't seem to see where it is leaking from. Where in this area could the oil be coming from?
Also, I changed the oil filter and oil and it's not leaking as a steady drip anymore but is definitely still leaking. Clean oil is now all over the frame under the starter. I put in 1 qt. lucas and 2 qts yamalube 20-50 to help slow the leaking which has worked but not solved the problem.
Also, when i drained the oil, the compression spring and oil strainer were absent, and the ring seal was cracked, should i try to get these parts from yamaha? Obvisously someone didn't replace them and it's been running for a long while without them. Thanks.
