New member, this is my first posting. From time to time I have read many postings and the information has always been helpful and informative, had no idea there were that many 650G owners out there, here is my problem.
Cranked up the engine the other day and before it gets up to temperature oil comes streaming down between the clutch housing and the block, kill the engine, check the dip stick and it is about two inches above the full mark and the viscosity is very thin and looks to be diluted with coolant which is not milky or brown in color, but more like thin drain oil. Just want to know where all the freeze plugs are located and what to check before trearing down the engine. One suggestion was to remove the crankcase pan and pour water into the block and see if water was coming into the crankcase. Sure hate to give it up, I have had this Satoh since it was new, SN 700053.
