Fuel on magneto plate...
Posted: Sun Oct 14, 2012 10:52 pm
Hello mates!
While wanting to check point gap on my Silver Century 1971, I noticed quite a lot of unburned fuel on the plate under the magneto.
Does this mean that the upper crankcase seal is shot and should I worry about it? The engine runs quite smooth at all rpm's and the points are dry even though they are surrounded by a coating of unspent fuel at their base.
I hear it's quite a job replacing these seals
Your help and recommendations are quite welcome!
