My dirt bike is a kx 60 1993 and its leaking oil from the spark plug what can i do to fix it?

Check your sparkplug. It may have been tightened so much it broke the seal on the cylinder. Try removing it and checking for cracks, and if none, replace the sparkplug. If this still dosent work I'd take it to a shop, thats pretty serious.





Hope all works out man.My dirt bike is a kx 60 1993 and its leaking oil from the spark plug what can i do to fix it?
Very bad news, but can be fixed by a capable machinist.





you must first find a capable (and preferably honest) machinist.





They will be able to bore that sucker out and tap in new threads that allow a larger spark plug. I had this happen on a scooter, where a shop mechanic screwed up my threads.





I live in Asia and it was dirt cheap for me, including tear-down and rebuild, as well as transportation from a general repair shop to the machinist was only 35 bucks USD. Expect to pay a fair bit more in the US. Say 50-80 bucks for the repair and whatever it costs for transit (assuming your bike isn't street legal). You may have to pay extra for the tear-down, so if you are handy with a wrench, you could just take the engine down there... You might also ask around if you belong to a club... might be a backyard mechanic that will do the tear-down for you and then you just have to haul the engine down to the machinists. They might even know a guy....

I have my own dirtbike and it did this once





Remove the old spark plug and see where it is leakeng depending where it is you can recover the leak and buy a new sparkplug to put on it


(have a mechanic recover the leak)
