[QUOTE="stumpy lord, post: 28270, member: 207"] [b]oily clutch[/b] Hi, the oil it is most probably coming down the splined shaft. two cures you can try are as follow 1 the norman walker mod, 2 get your self an o ring that fits into the recess of the clutch carrier but is thicker than the depth of the recess[ it has to protrude slightly above the face of the clutch shoe carrier. next manufacture a distance piece that has the same external dia as the internal bore of the O ring the internal bore being the same as the splined shaft, and the thicknes being the same as the depth of the recces. The o ring and distance piece fit over the splined shaft and sit in the reccess . the nut tightens down on to the distance piece trapping the o ring in the reccess thus sealing of the splined shaft, this is cheap and easy to do, and does away with that horrible bodge of clagging up the shaft with jointing compound. cheers stumpy lord [/QUOTE]
