I have an oil leak and backfire on left cylinder that I need some ideas on what might be wrong. I had no issues prior to an incident where I lost my carb drain plug on my right carb. rode for a few blocks until the bike died and all the fuel drained out. I didn't know I lost the drain plug until I stopped I was testing the bike after rejetting to 40 and 135 jets. The bike is a 1980 XS650G with BS34 carbs w/ pod filters. Pamco Ignition (Timing is good) and green monster coil. I had an issue with the coil where the spark was jumping because the boot cam off but I fixed that. Any ideas on what might be causing the oil leak would be great. I am being told that I may have bent the piston rings.
thanks ahead,
