bratman2 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I had a pretty good oil leak on the front of my Brat when I bought it 15 years ago. Ran down the oil pressure sending unit and would have appeared to be the front main seal. Turns out the oil pump housing itself was cracked causing the leak. Really hard to see in place. It actually came off in two pieces when I replaced it. May not be your problem but something you could check. Maybe you could use a small mirror and check the pump. I wouldn't be using Royal Purple if I was dumping it all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyeights Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 It's probably coming from one of the o-rings or seals at the oil pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l75eya Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Are you ticking at all? I agree with above, check out the oil pump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
