Ok my quad is leaking a tiny bit of oil...I dont run out for a long long time, but the engine gets a thin layer of oil on it. I thought it was coming out of the head gasket, but I looked again today, and its coming out of 2 bolts on the head. Its not the valve covers but 2 alen key bolts on the left side of the head. Is there a gasket in there that would be replaced or the bolt or what? and what are they called? Also, on the left side, a cable comes out of the crankcase. I think its the neutral cable not sure though, but the o-ring under the rubber boot is ripped a little bit. What's this called? and on the right side, a little bit comes out of where the oil lines mount to the crankcase, they come from around the line mounts, so its not the line. Is this another bad gasket? thanks
