Urgent help needed !!!
My friends My A150 had run around 45k kms . There is a leakage near engine head . I have been told by my mechanic that bike needs new timing chain and some valve whose name i don't remember . So can you exactly tell what parts need replacement in 45k kms service apart from engine oil and oil filter ?

1)Check the oil filler cap... loose nutsOriginally posted by VinayakVerma View PostMy friends My A150 had run around 45k kms . There is a leakage near engine head .

2)Clutch Connection to Engine- gasket Clutch cover might be gone.
3)Improper valve setting can also cause this issue Reversing Oil Flow..Last edited by shahbaz63; 08-30-2012, 12:22 PM.

The engine head gasket might have blown off OR the valve seals might be damaged.Check for any white smoke coming out of the exhaust,it will give you a clear indication.Also do get the compression pressure checked at TVS SVC.Originally posted by VinayakVerma View PostMy friends My A150 had run around 45k kms .

No white smoke means that the valves & time chain is in good condition.Originally posted by VinayakVerma View PostAs i have checked no white smoke is coming from bike .
Gasket or valve seal is worn out or damaged..Get it changed & bike will be normal.Will cost you less than 1k at tvs svc (as labor charges is very high) but the seal & gasket is not expensive..
I had faced the same problem, i.e, engine oil leak around the cylinder head & loss of pick-up,fuel efficiency,top-speed..The bike was fixed in TVS SVC, they charged Rs450 as labor,Rs85 for oil cap,Rs21 for gasket,Rs40 for CO tuning & get an overall tuning done..Give the bike for a complete general servicing(will cost some Rs250) & your friends bike will be in good condition..
