Has anyone had a leaking (oil) Harbor Freight Blue Clone? What part was bad, and where did you get a replacement from?

Thanks

where is the oil leaking from? its probably just the seal on the side casing in which case get some "gasket goo"(its this black silicone like stuff) or a proper paper gasket. if its leaking from the breather hose the take some oil out and see if that stops it(dont take to much out! your engine will break!)

hope this helps

Means ur gasket is ripped or gone if its leaking out of the crankcase. Just make a new gasket with cardboard (NOT THE RIPPLED STUFF, CEREAL BOX CARDBOARD) you can buy gasket paper of course but i find it harder to work with as it rips. Also u could buy a genuine gasket but why? Homemade gaskets are the exact same, never had one of mine fail on me b4. Only gaskets u ever gotta buy is the non paper or rubber ones like head gaskets, cylinder gaskets and exhaust gaskets.
