Just got it and the oil stick popped out (oil level is correct (between low and full). It feels very loose so I added 2 O-rings and it tight and seals great. A few cents at any hardware store


Oil-Resistant Buna-N Multipurpose O-Ring, 3/32 Fractional Width, Dash Number 116

I'd suggest your next "mod" would be to take the air filter off and make sure the crankcase vents are operable.[as in clean and not plugged]

 

Thanks, I will

 

My 2000 had the same issue and did the same fix years ago. Great minds think alike.

 

All clear, thanks
