Well, I had a chance today to resume working on the quad. I couldn't find anything doing a pressure test, but I think I found the problem. I think the motor had to be running for the leak to be present (just a guess). <br /><br />I started removing the tranny, and found that all but one of the c...

Just tried the suction test (hooked vacuum up to the valve cover hose). Not sure if that's a good place or not, but didn't notice any smoke being pulled into the case at all.<br /><br />I'm wondering if I should pull the tranny out and check for any cracks there? Or maybe just use the co...

That's exactly what I had in mind Ray. Based on what we all had talked about way back when. I stopped yesterday because I have to set up for the pressure test. I think the regulator on my air compressor goes that low but I have to double check.<br /><br />Thanks for the suggestions guys! It ...

Not yet....just got it pulled and started checking things out today. I'll be doing it probably tomorrow though. It's going to get a lot of TLC now that it's finally out.

BTW, I caught that thread "Build of Hope".......LOVE IT! Everything you do is soooo clean.

4th Pic.. this is where I have a slight concern.<br /><br />In the circled areas, there were a few gouges and some material worn away. I'm not sure if this was there before or not. Is this enough material loss to cause concern? What could cause this, aside from uneven torque on the pressure plat...
