In this video I replace a magneto side crankshaft seal on a Yamaha CT-3 175 Enduro. I use a homemade slide hammer to remove. Then install the new one using RTV sealant, punch and a hammer.
For sure, great mechanic! I'm doing crank seals on my 77 Yamaha IT175. First time doing them on a dirt bike. The bike being worked on is very similar to my internals.
Thanks William, yes have been into all kinds of stuff over the years. Kind of settling down with the old bikes these days. Thats what retirement is all about. Enjoying the good life. Thanks for stopping by.
Dale, thanks so much for all the great info. Especially, the part numbers for hard to find hardware. Your channel is the best of its kind on the web, thanks again for posting all the valuable info.
I have been using my #2 JIS drivers on Philips screws also. I have found that they grip the Philips screws better then a Philips screw driver does. Seems like they don't cam out as easily. I believe the JIS is a far better design.
@@montana2strokeracer not yet, but soon. just one of those very useful tools that are available nowadays. remember in 1959 i took a Mustang scooter to a indenpendent dealer in Tucson for work all they had as pliers and a screw driver,really chewed up all my fittings was i pissed!
Hi there, best way is to perform a leak down test. But generally, if you have an air leak the engine will rev on its own or the spark plug will look very lean.
someday you need to show how you organize all the different parts. i for one cant find stuff and usually need to re order and of course eventually find the part. guess im just a sloppy person.
Nope, I too am a sloppy person. My spare parts are in a box...every time I need something I have to dump the whole box, go through everything and put it back in. At least I know it's in the box.
@@montana2strokeracer sounds familiar! you shop looks neat and organized, i for one just wonder how my family will feel when i passaway someday and they have to deal with the mess. maybe call the American Picker Show!
