Frankr mentions the importance of the o-ring at the top of the drive shaft.
I have wondered about its reason for being.
I almost know now. To keep water out of the area where drive shaft meets crank.
But, how would it get up there? Under normal use any way.
As always, these posts make me re-think every thing.
I took the head off of one of my CD motors thinking I had left it out.
It was there.
Damn, which motor was it?
Must be, is probably the 68′ 9.5! Dang, not again!
