feetupfun Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 The seal can be replaced by removing the clutch camshaft. The clutch camshaft is retained by its adjusting screw on the left side of the gearbox near the gearbox sprocket. To see this screw you will need to remove the magneto cover. The screw has a locknut which will need to be loosened to get the screw out. If the clutch camshaft won't come out with the adjusting screw removed, you will also need to remove the clutch pressure plate (inside the primary drive cover) to let the clutch pushrod move clear of the upper end of the clutch camshaft. There are service/repair manuals available for the B model which has the same arrangement for the clutch camshaft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyjazz Posted August 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 after re reading your kind advice and digesting it and looking at pg 70 of my service manual it all makes sense! and i see why that screw didn't budge if it has a lock nut on it! thank you again.

Tillerman6 Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 So is your clutch arm seal installed OK with no leaks now? I had to do mine day before yesterday. Mine is working fine now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
