Has anyone ever had a problem with their 300ex squirting oil out the left side of the cylinder head? Mine is doing that and i cant seem to figure out what is causing it. The engine runs fine and the head gasket is not blown. If anyone has had this problem please reply and tell how you fixed it. Thanks

which left side? as your sitting on the quad or looking at it? If your looking at it, the left side, there's a black circle cover for your timing chain, that usually leaks a little. Depending on how bad it is, open her up and put come gasket sealer around that bad boy.

Could be the valve cover gaskets. What year is it?

mine squits oil out the right side where the black cover is, I looked at another 300EX and it had sealant around it, but for some reason mine doesn't.
