Just picked up this cannibal a few months ago, going through the maintenance procedures. Went to drain oil, upper drainon right side of quad drains fine, removed drain on lower left side of frame and its bone dry. The plug is even dry. Shouldn't there be oil coming from this?

Poke up in there with a piece of wire. They can get clogged with settling debri if they sit for a long time with an engine that's on its way out.
