yesterday when i was taking the oil filter cover off, the long bolt on the right side snaped off in the engine, so i called belleville honda, and he said i should take off my whole clutch cover and see if the bolt was visible, and could be taken out with a vise grip, luckily it was. so i took care of that and got it all put back together. i put just a little more that 1.8 quarts in it, and took it home from my buddies house. this morning i went out there and started it up and let it run for 3 or 4 minutes, then checked the oil, and it read that i had almost no oil. so i gathered the remaining quarts of oil that i had used before, and put that in and it reads that i have enough in. but my question is, when i started it up the first time, it ticked a little, is that because of when i took my clutch cover and the cables apart that i lost a little bit more oil.
