Check your engine mount bolts & see if they are tight, if loose crankcase may be cracked.

Huh, the engine mount bolts came loose about 3 years ago. was making noise awhile there before I figured it out and retightened them.
will look close, just about have the engine ready to remove. Anywhere in particular I should pay attention to?
Thanks for the help, Paul

When you remove the old seal, you will see a hole which will go directly into the crankcase. I push a stiff piece of wire through to make sure it is open.

Thanks Rivets, will check. Just about have the engine ready to lift off the frame. Hoping to do this weekend, Thanks again... Paul
