 Case Leak 37 EFI just hit 60hrs and I noticed a thin coat of oil halfway down the block. Not enough to drip or notice on the dipstick. I have all intentions to go to the Sparkelberry swamp duck run, which is next Saturday. Would it hurt or lead to any further issues by running it one more time before carrying it to the shop?

Re: Case Leak Just make sure the case bolts are torqued properly and rock on.

Re: Case Leak Do like cb said and check your bolts. I ran mine for a year and half with it leaking worse than what you just described.

Re: Case Leak With a motor that new, its under warranty for that repair, Check the 3 bolts on the oil filter side for 200" pound TQ and go enjoy your run, make an appointment with your dealer to get it fixed at your convenience.

Re: Case Leak Is this an EFi with a liquid gasket from the factory? Did some of the earlier motors still have a regular gasket? Just curious if the new way of sealing the crank case is making a difference.
