    #4 leaking oil

    Pulled the plugs today and noticed #4 is leaking some oil. I just rebuilt the engine from crankcase up and just recently has it begun to leak. #4 has no issue firing and has 135 psi compression, I just dont know If I need to be concerned yet.

    Hi,

    Oh, I don't know. It's probably too soon to say. Maybe the rings aren't fully seated yet? Maybe a valve seal is leaking? Is the bike smoking? If you just rebuilt the top end, I'd ride it for a while and see. Are you sure it's oil fouled and not gas fouled?


    Thank you for your indulgence,

      Leaking from where?

      The plugs are oil fouled or is it actually leaking?

      What is your idea of a rebuild?
