Anybody familiar with this Kawasaki 12.5HP FC401V engine?
Noticed a slight drip while doing a belt change. The leak isn't easy to find as I haven't power washed it yet.
The exploded parts diagram on-line doesn't show a gasket between the crankcase 'halves'.
May have to wait until Fall, then pull the engine :confused:

Thanks for any ideas.

My T1460 also has a leak that I have yet to find [I have not yet really taken things off to search for it.]
But it shows itself by dripping onto the front axle and then to the ground.
Machine runs fine and I regularly check and top up the oil.
I suspected maybe the crankshaft seal or some such. I will have to check it in the fall too.
