alan_nc Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Well I had a wonderful weekend of riding but about 5 minutes before loading her back on the truck I seem to have blown a crank seal. Lot of bottom end noise for awhile and now the carb won't settle on an idle - guess air is getting past the seal on the flywheel side. Will get bearings and seals this week and start in. Have never split the cases on a TY250....... please...... anything I should watch out for ...... any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

tony283 Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Alan, Usually trouble free, couple of "gottchas" remember to put the inner clutch push rod in before jointing up on assembly and also the kickstart spring. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Make a note of which way around the clutch push rod is fitted when it comes apart. It is shaped differently at either end and the manual doesn't state which end goes which side. I've no idea what happens if it is fitted the wrong way around (if anything) but something to watch out for. I guess it's fair to assume that if your clutch has been working ok, the way it is fitted now is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_nc Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Thanks guys, Does anyone have a source for the seals? Found the bearings on ebay but am striking out on the seals. I know Speed and Sport have them but I'm a cheapskate...... $36 for two seals seems a bit much. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan_nc Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Dave, Was hoping to have everything sitting ready to go back together when I started. Do you happen to know the number(s) of the two crank seals. I have the Yamaha numbers, but not the Seal Company numbers. Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave dix Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Sorry i forgot to log the numbers but measure the id of the seal or od of the crank then size of outer then thickness (these are usually on the seal in this order in mm ) use a good vernier caliper and the two seals are different. Perhaps someone here could have the sizes written down Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter9000uk Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 If the Yam parts manuals are anythin like the Honda ones you may strike lucky by looking up the part number and the sizes may be shown right by the description Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
