| Re: leaking oil on my 954 If your over filled the first thing to do is remove the excess oil, clean everything and see if it still leaks. Many times if an engine is overfilled liquid oil hits the crank and they will leak in places that they usually would never leak and the pressure can force oil past even good seals. Very very hard on an engine to run with too much oil in it.

| Re: leaking oil on my 954 The right side crankcase cover has no gasket. You use a liquid type gasket material when putting it back on. Honda sells what it originally came with. |

| Re: leaking oil on my 954 Just kind of curious how much oil is too much? How much extra oil did it take to cause your leak? |
