Milky oil

Featured Replies

Hello Guys need your Help my 2007 Scorpa I just got I drained the oil to change it and Notice it being a Milky colour I have read a thread on hear that it may be the water pump seal or the head gasket I have took the clutch case off impeller on first glace the Water pump seal looked ok But looking closer at it the centre bit had a small rip not sure if this would be the problem? the coolant was clean green. the bike I was told had been stood for some time. any help would be great cheers Bondy.

thank you may be that's the problem ill put fresh oil in and see how I go cheers.

You would be doing yourself a great favor by ordering a new oil seal now if you have not done so already. Transmission oil milky and an oil seal with a definite flaw in pump is pretty much self explanatory.

cheers budy ill let you know how it gose :thumbup:

On the Betas the case rotted sometimes as it was made of magnesium , if you are still getting water in the gearbox after fitting the new seal this may be worth checking out , also check the spindle isn't worn and allowing water to pass
