huge oil leak

[DreKat]

I have a huge oil leak from the oil cooling lines at the base of the engine for my 98 750 Kat. I need to go to the dealer for parts but am unsure what to ask for. Please help beaytiful weather on the way.

im not sure but the banjo bolts on the bottom of your oil cooler lines have lil bushing/gasket/washers on there and they could have rotted out and let loose, check thoes

Yeah, I would think it would either be that, or the line itself. The lines may just need to be replaced.

thanks i picked up 2 o rings. hopefully that works if not i will let yas know.

When you pull it apart, check the hoses and what not. See how they are holding up. It is still not to old, so I guess I would imagine they would be in good condition still. Oil line is cheap if it needs to be replaced.

there are acully two copper washers on each line that also my need to be replaced, there on the bottom of the line at the pick up. I had to replace mine when i had a leak from my lines

[DreKat]

all fixed! all i needed was two cooper washers.

The copper "crush" gaskets can be
resurfaced. Use a file or sand paper to get rid of the "ring" cut in by the fitting.
Touch up with scotch brite and there you are..
This is only in a pinch mind you.. they are cheap enough to get extras when you need them..

So I have the same problem with my bike I presume because I cleaned everything and it's leaking from that right oil line bolt. Can you buy these copper rings at any store or should I go to an automotive store?

any where that sells them is ok.
