Had a good mud ride last weekend and must have missed some under the fork guard when I cleaned. Developed a leak on the left fork of my 08 te 510 during this weekends ride. Just cleaned it with a strip of .010 thick plastic, and got a little sand out of a spot on the wheel side of the fork.
Question 1: What is the snap ring just over the dust seal on the fork for?
Question 2: Is it worth putting a few tablespoons of oil back into the fork that leaked out during the day. Is there any way of putting a thin rod or something down into the air bleed hole or something that will tell me if the level in the 2 forks is even. I don't want to drain them both and refil to get them even if I don't have to.
I appreciate your thoughts and comments on this.
Background: I have about 1200 pretty easy miles on the bike, I have motion pro bleeders and I use them often. Thanks, Ken
