Re: Coolant pump
There is a witness hole in the body of the pump, it would normally show coolant as the coolant around the seal is pressurised but the oil is only splash fed to the bearing,
The oil seal is on the body of the pump itself and is very easy to replace after removal of the pump

Think this is a case of a bad o-ring inside ...

Hi all,
Thanks for letting me in. Im a Marine stationed in Japan and came across a 1990 FZR with just 13k kilometers. Im eager to get riding and tinkering. I guess my first order of business is the R1 caliper swap and possibly removing the rubber "restrictor" in the intake couplers (can't think of ...
