Pramac Engine Oil Leak

Oil leaking under the Pramac generator set

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Loose drain plug, Damaged oil filter seal, Crankcase gasket leak, Overfilled crankcase causing breather discharge

Safety first: Allow engine to cool. Oil may be hot and surfaces sharp.

Check oil level: Verify level is not above MAX. Drain excess oil if overfilled.
Inspect drain plug and filter: Tighten the oil drain plug and oil filter to the torque specified. Replace the filter if its seal is damaged.
Clean and monitor: Clean the area and run the generator briefly, then recheck for fresh leaks to pinpoint source.
Gasket leaks: Persistent leaks from crankcase or rocker cover gaskets may require gasket replacement by a technician.
