Counter shaft oil seal
TwiggsiiieS:
Can anyone tell me if this seal can be replaced without splitting the crankcase, its the one behind the front chain sprocket.
The schematic seem to show a locating pin on the top. Seems like this could be common problem but I can't find any threads, so sorry if I've missed it and thanks in advance. Its a 1978 400f
MCTID:
Hi....check out the recent post from Roy Hall......I'm sure that he had a problem with a seal on his 350F, but managed to replace it without any drama.
Not sure if it's the same seal as yours.....but it might well be.
Good luck anyway.
Chris400F:
I was thinking about Roy's thread too (http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php/topic,9636.0.html) but it was for a different seal.
Might be the same principle though, worth a read.
Bryanj:
Proper location of the peg is vital to bearing life so you have to split the cases mate sorry

Thanks all, have only just got the bike and want to ride it a bit( well alot) before I pull it to bits. Yes Royhalls thread is very smilar but different seal. I will re read the whole thread again. Dont know how to go back to it while replying but i remember someone mentioning "opening the crankcase a tadge" is this doable in situ?I think I will buy a seal just to what it looks like.
