[QUOTE="andrew peters, post: 175017, member: 3776"] A few years ago we machined this recess in the back of the clutch carrier for a 1 mm O ring.. The idea was from Norman (Timetraveller).. I believe it worked great for a many miles.. When I put the 5 speed 'box in my bike I had to change the carrier to the D style though so this C3 is surplus to requirements now.. The D Carrier was modded with the same recess, some people will say its not necessary of course with the O Ring on the C20 but us old guys often go with belt and braces... Oh, the D style O ring didn't work very well for me either actually... I, as others before, found a different O ring or combination of a couple different size O rings did the trick. One more thing.. the C3 is pretty difficult to hold in a lathe, because of its shape, so the recess is not an easy mod.. Norman hinted at that also... [ATTACH type="full"]60225[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
