Guest scooterneal Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Noticed a leak in my oil delivery line. Is this normal wear or is it caused by pressure problems? It's a 2000 Basa w/ 22,000 miles on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Field Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Most likely normal wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrt Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I don't know how the Bassa oil lines are constructed, but I've replaced all my old-style cloth covered lines with either hard-piped steel (from the Eldorado) or use the stainless steel braided line. The fittings seem to leak on the cloth-covered stuff. Be sure an use all new crush washers (6 of them) when you install new ones. If you careful, you can put a *very small amount* of teflon sealant on the fastener threads (not tape- use the liquid stuff). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
