Out of curiosity, what oil are you using - brand, type, viscosity?

SAE 50, I get it from Rye Oils. Use it in all the motors and not had any problems so far.Mick D wrote:Hiajscomboman wrote: I guess they've been swelling for a while and the latest round of baking hot weather and oil was enough

As well as tractor oil they also do a vintage classic oil for classic cars etc and that's what I use.g80csp11 wrote:Rob , Rye oil is tractor oil and not specifically blended for motorcycles . I know much cheaper but you get what you pay for
if you check out the classification you will see the difference , a bit like Asda own brand Vs Castrol
It might be that the oil has caused the 'plumber's O rings to swell or perhaps you payed the extra for Viton O rings
Just a thought
