Case Leaks....what to do

[DeadLastRacing]

I buit my warrior and finished up not to long ago and have just started to put some time on it. Ive noticed that when I let it set, overnight an oil sport appears under the case on the ground. I thought at first that it was a bad oil plug which it was so I replaced it but the oil is still coming out. Further investigation lead me to believe that the case seal is bad underneath. Is there a quick fix for this? Can I use engine oil sealant.

I would use use some high-temp silicone.

Do not put a sealer in it. Your going to mess your clutch up. Proper way would be to split the case.

I mean sealer on the outside, how would that mess the clutch up?

Ohh sorry about that.

The best stuff I've used to seal cases on my quads/bikes was 515 Flange sealant. This stuff works great, used is on my Bro's warrior and it didn't leak a drop.
Split the cases, clean off both halves, apply a THIN layer of the 515, and put it all back together. Done right you won't have anymore problems.

Run down to your local auto part store and get you a can of Spot Weld. Great stuff, just spray it on and instantly bonds the metal together.
