Hey Guys! so i picked up a sweet little ATC110 from a farmer here in idaho, and I have finally gotten her running right. soaked the tank in apple cider vinegar after i saw a post about it(it totally works), and cleaned the begeezes out of the card and it runs like a dream. Everything has been great on it so far except its had a bad oil leak from where the drive sprocket is. so i finally pulled it apart tonight and found(similar to posts about ct110 oil leaks) that the side of the case had be smashed in at some point by the chain. most people JB weld the pieces back together, but i had to pieces to JB weld. So after inspecting the holes, where the oil comes from and where it could possibly go, i found that oil really just splashes in and drains out of that pocket. the only shaft in there connects to the neutral indicator shaft and doesn't really need lube. so i jb welded up those holes. Ill take it out for a spin tomorrow and see if i fixed it or shafted myself but hopefully it will give an option of repair for someone who might be in my situation as well sometime.
