Hi All,
Wondering if anyone has come across this issue before.
I went to drain my oil in my 78 special, and to my surprise i had at least 5 litres of fluid. It seemed to be a mixture of both oil and petrol.
The bike has been sitting around for about 6-9 months prior and when starting for the first time it ran like a dog.
I think what has happened is the petrol from the tank has slowly drained via the bores into the crankcase. I didn't think this was possible?
The compression is good 100 psi left hand clyinder and 120 psi right hand clyinder.
Has anyone come across this before?
I'm interested to know
Regards
Crackers
