o.k. i just got a 400ex that has been sitting for about 2 years- it is a 416 with mild port work and cam-has a brand new sparks x6,lectron carb,k&n-when i started it ,it started dripping oil pretty rapidly from where the lines meet the case,all bolts are tight-just wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
i think it could be bad o-rings or something of the sort-havent pulled them yet to see whats wrong
any help would be great-yhanks in advance

The O-rings are the 1st thing I would check in that area, replace them with new ones and see how it turns out :)

if the clutch cover was p/ced, and they didn't plug the holes, that could be it too. Chances are its the o-ring
