When you put the PD21 in there put a 1/16 in section o ring in the small radius where the bearing meets the shaft. The PD21 will squish it in there and stop any oil sneaking between the shaft and the bearing and inevitably finding its way to the clutch!

Sorry to not have replied sooner but life has been too busy. looks like you are on the right track tho'

No worries Robert, I know you have allot going on. I have found in my spares a narrower PD21 and it sits more along the line of others that I have seen pictures of. This seems to have fixed the locking up issue. SO tomorrow I can get the clutch sorted and move on to the kickstart quadrant.

I found a 1/16 section o ring in position so a clever guy that was helping me obviously fitted for me. ;)

Hope the Rudge is getting worked on. Hi to all the family.
