Well I tore it down and found a crack at the screw boss that's between the fuel and oil tanks. I repaired the crack
put on a new gasket and it still leaked but not at the screw boss. The case halves did not mate together true so one side is somehow warped slightly. I had another saw for parts and I used the case from it went ahead and installed the
crank and rod and assembled the case halves together filled it with fuel and let it set for about 4 hours or so and no leaks. Ordered new crank seals and a genuine stihl top end kit with two groove piston. Got the seals today and still
waiting on the top end kit. I'll let you guys know how it runs when I get it complete. Thanks again for all the help
so far on my little 009 soon to be a 009L
