83 200x oil drip

[honda82200]

after i ran my 200x today i seen they had a oil drip on the ground i saw it was comming from a hose that is cut off that runs from the top of the crank case and it just stop right at the bottom of the frame.. does anyone know why is oil dripping out of there? thank you matt

That is the crankcase breather hose. You have too much oil in the engine...this is not good. I read in one of your posts that you did an oil change? Yes? You said you added 1.5 quarts of oil. The engine only holds 1 quart. Oil is being blown out through the breather.

normally id agree but im having the same issue and i have the rite amount of oil in mine . but if i were you id check the oil level first .

Blow by from worn piston/rings causes excessive crank case pressures and can cause this also .

1000cc's or 1 litre is around 1.1 quarts. Both the Honda book and Canadian measures use litres or cc's, so that's why I mentioned 1 litre.
