I just changed the oil in my 2002 Foreman 450 S and in my Haynes manual it says remove the drain plug.........and at one point it says to check the washer on the drain plug. Well the washer on my drain plug is evidentally a permanent washer because it does not slide up over the threads...it just spins by the bolt head.
My drain plug also took a 17mm socket to remove it....is this the original plug....is that what size most of your drain plugs take to remove them?
ALSO...can someone post a pic of their drain plug and what this so called washer looks like and so on...?
Cause on the bolt (towards the front of the bike, and no where else around the bolt) is a super small seaping leak. It doesn't drip...but it puts oil on my finger if I touch it in that spot...or at least it hasn't dripped yet...only been a few hours. But I cleaned it off real well before re-installing the bolt with just the washer that was on it. So I know it isn't left over oil leaking around it.
What is this so called washers part number?
Give me some info so I can get this leak conqured.
