Could anyone help a newbie? oil leak...

Featured Replies

hi friends, if anyone could help a newbie out and talk me through changing an oil seal on the clutch actuator arm id be very very chuffed and extremely grateful.

if its super easy then please excuse my ignorance but im just getting started with the spanners!  i don't want to bite off more than i can chew but its dripping oil from the clutch actuator arm.

I have a 1974 TY250A.

extremely good vibes to anyone kind enough to help! :) best wishes from NYC

The seal can be replaced by removing the clutch camshaft.

The clutch camshaft is retained by its adjusting screw on the left side of the gearbox near the gearbox sprocket. To see this screw you will need to remove the magneto cover. The screw has a locknut which will need to be loosened to get the screw out.

If the clutch camshaft won't come out with the adjusting screw removed, you will also need to remove the clutch pressure plate (inside the primary drive cover) to let the clutch pushrod move clear of the upper end of the clutch camshaft.

There are service/repair manuals available for the B model which has the same arrangement for the clutch camshaft.

after re reading your kind advice and digesting it and looking at pg 70 of my service manual it all makes sense! and i see why that screw didn't budge if it has a lock nut on it!  thank you again.

So is your clutch arm seal installed OK with no leaks now?  I had to do mine day before yesterday.  Mine is working fine now.
