I scanned all the previous titles for the guy that was losing oil out of his sub transmission and came up 0 last night. A friend of mine rode w/me in Colorado and said we need to go back to camp and check your sub transmission oil level, it didn't show on the dip stick, added oil and all was well for the ride. Been smelling burt oil for a couple months now, no oil on the skids or shop floor, any ideas? Or thread?

What..

So you added more since CO?
I feel like you, or someone drained it out by mistake. It was empty in CO.

Going to check the vent line, maybe it's clogged and blowing oil out a seal, I doubt it.

It smelled for months, back two drain plugs and checked levels after oil change, no over fill, even measured oil before I filled. The burt oil smell has been going on for 6 months, even in CO. Turn the exhaust fan on and smell goes away?
