long story short, I'm retarded. So im making an off road shifter using a suzuki 4 stroke bike engine, its from a '87 dr 100. I have the engine behind the seat over the axle, and i made the mounts before i made sure i could run the chain straight down without obstructions. So anyways it all came together pretty well except there was one round lump of aluminum coming out of the transmission part of the engine right in the way of the chain. I figured it couldnt be too important ( i though it was just part of the mold they didnt cut off...:oops: ). so i cut it off slowly with a hacksaw blade and when i got halfway though i found a small hole that spurted out clear liquid, since it wasnt a lubricant i started up the engine and nothing was different, there was no air coming out of the hole and no liquids either. Does anyone know what this was a what i did?

My guess is since there isnt alot of oil thrashing around it wont come out. but its def. oil if it was a clear liquid and your motor isnt water cooled hehe clean it real good and use the olmighty JB weld to patch the hole you madeworked on my cracked gear case on my motorcycle for a long wile

I had the same jb weld idea, i was just wondering what the hell it was, i know it wasnt oil (unless i somehow got gas or water in my oil, which im almost positive i didnt), and the engine isnt water cooled. So i guess i'll JB weld it and forget it ever happened.
