Mattblfc8 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi guys I was wondering if there was a way to flush out my gearbox after having creamy oil from water pump seal being faulty I don't want to fix it all and put fresh oil just for any junk that's left in there to ruin it again any help appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 They also do a motorcycle specific one if you want that as car ones have the wrong additives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattblfc8 Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Thanks for replies do I just pour that into gearbox and let the bike warm up for a bit and then just drain it out and put fresh oil in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dt502001 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Or you can just fill the gear box with Deisel fuel till it wont take anymore and shake the bike for a few min and drain it,let it dry over night with the filler cap and drain plug out.

Thats what I'd do it's relatively cheap, I'd run round the block a few times too to splash it around the gearbox....am i mad ?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 I would NOT suggest you run the bike at all, Nor did I......simply fill and flush!!! Parts cleaner's are basicaly a form of Deisle fuel. or varsol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I was careful enough to say 'If it were me' thats what I'd do...on a 2 stroke bike anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
