coolent leeking into my oil

[crf450r rider]

hey i have a crf450r 2004 and i have this problem, i just put a new water pump seal in but it still leaks into my oil and no it is running out of the bottom of the water pump when its start

Which side is the water getting into, the transmission oil or the engine oil?

 

[crf450r rider]

umm the side the shifter is on

Ok....

Did you put the new oil seal in properly?

 

[crf450r rider]

umm i put a new water seal in

 

[IndyMX]

Hmmm... Yeah, that's what I meant..

The spring/lip side should be towards the water.

Not the flat side..

They don't work worth a damn when they're in backward...

Could be that you have it in wrong, and the weep hole is clogged

You should make sure it's not clogged.

when i put a new that new seal in i started it up and water was coming out of the weep hole

 

[IndyMX]

You probably put it in backwards..

with the cover off, can you see the spring around the center of the seal?
