  • oil leaking from vst overflow port on crankcase

    searched and came up with nothing... engine is a 05 df115

    so the other day after a half a day of fishing, starting noticing a sheen from the back of the motor in the water... got home safely and remove the cowl and found the hose from the vst overflow to the crankcase had come loose from the crank case and oil had leaked down all over the hoses and case... I checked the breather hose and nothing is clogged both intake and crank case... so my question is why is it leaking from the crank case overflow port instead of the breather hose which is 5 times bigger??? I am assuming something caused over pressure and popped the hose lose even with a clamp clean off without tearing it... oddly enough I checked they oil level and is fine and not overfilled (making oil)... any ideas? can someone explain to me if oil reaches that high in the crank case when running? I am new to Suzuki and learning as I go. I have already perform the exhaust port fix...

    thanks in advance
Working...
