I noticed a few drops of oil on my garage floor. After further "examination" I notice it is coming from behind the water pump. Item 10 on this pic:


Now (Conrice, Letsride) do you think it would be necessary to order a simple O-Ring from the dealership/online? Or do you think I can get away with a autozone/advanced auto/oreillys auto O-Ring?

 

I think I have one of these o-rings that I removed from my bike. It was not leaking oil but I had to change the gasket on the cover so I decided to order this o-ring and change it too while I had the water pump off the bike. If I can find it you can it for free.

Any o-ring as long as its the correct size and diameter should work just fine.

 

Ok cool. The o ring is only 2 bucks but waiting 3-4 days is dumb. I'm going to pull it today and go find one.

 

an o-ring is an o-ring if its the same size, so if you can find one at ACE or autozone, go for it.

 

No need to wait on one from Honda as long as it's the same size it will work.
