DeTour Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I drained the oil on my 74 dt 175 and I think i could smell gas in the oil... What could cause that? Running it too rich? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator mervin Posted June 6, 2011 Moderator Share Posted June 6, 2011 Possibly but also the crank seal leaking would do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeTour Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 awesome... thank you! I've been battling this bike since last summer. I had it in the shed for the winter and just pulled it out. Sometimes all you need is a fresh start on a project to regain your oomph on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
