Harb67 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Glad to hear you're making progress on this. I know I'd flip out if I had to throw in the towel on the season this early in just because of a shitty dealership. Hope you guys fix everything soon Major props to Gixxie and everyone helping out!

ReconRat Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 ummm, seen this on trucks, nothing stoopid like hoses pulling fluids into the intake box? Or into the carbs? Or even a engine vent that goes to the intake side? I remember fixing a van that was pumping all of it's oil into the intake manifold.

Glad to hear they're finally manning up and doing what needs to be done. This kind of bad rep is terrible for dealerships, I'm shocked it took them this long to come around.

FocusDave01 Posted April 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 *update* just got off the phone with servcie manager they put some miles on her today and def see that its leaking oil internaly.. did a leak down test and couple cylanders is showing 5-7% and others at 6-8% which i guess as long as its under 15% thats a good thing. they checked the plugs they were just older not bad prob just from sitting imo but not bad as we expected they were all the same. a tad bit dirty. bike is nekid and they run some ring clean stuff from yamaha that goes thru the whole motor and flushe's her out and cleans her up good then there gonna go drive her some more to see if it helps. with the oil consumptions. said something about an oil overlow ring or something internally so far my stress lvl has subsided lol, im glad there working hard for me and appretiate it. more updates to come..
