taotao ata125-d
Hi,
I picked up an taotao ata125-d from a guy for free because he couldn't get it working. I drained the gas, changed the oil, and put a brand new carb on. It runs great now, however, I am seeing a slight oil leak near the engine head, i think. See pic.
All bolts are tight. Is there a gasket that should be replaced? Its hard for me to tell if the oil is coming from the chrome cap (not sure what its called), or coming from above in the seal for the head (not sure I'm calling that right either)... Or Should I not being seeing oil here at all and its possible there is a bigger issue, piston rings?
Anyway, i'm pretty proud of myself for getting it to the point it is now, and with the price being what it is I think it might work great for my kids.
I just don't want to be cleaning oil off the garage floor all the time if its an easy fix.
