Yamaha 100 Trailmaster Crankshaft seal replacement 

You will get it done Ron, sometimes those armatures can be a pill to remove even with the puller. But usually, a wack with a brass hammer on the end of the puller when tight will free most easily.

Thanks Jeff, your way to kind. Sure, appreciate you supporting the channel, it has been a fun adventure.

Thanks Matt, think it will be a fun project.

Thanks Chris, I am watching your project about the kick shaft with earnest. best of luck with it.

Thanks Matt, sure appreciate you taking the time to follow the channel.

Thanks for stopping by Peter.

Thanks Mark got some good ones coming up.

Wow Mike, you are way too kind man. I just have to say in my defense, I am not a pro, nor a master of any of this stuff, it's just fun to do it and it usually works out ok.

@@montana2strokeracer Well you are very good at showing and explaining step by step and I as well as many appreciate that. I'm curious what did you or do you still do for a living? You would have made a fantastic shop teacher.

@@mikelauer8891 Hey Mike, sure appreciate the kind words. No, I am retired these days, I was once a technical school instructor in the U. S. Air Force. I guess maybe some of that has hung on to me over the years. I am just hoping that some may find some value in what I'm doing with the channel. I never dreamed that there were so many likeminded folks out there still interested in these old bikes. Shoot thought I was the only one. Thanks Mike.

@@montana2strokeracer I kind of figured or at least hoped you were a teacher / instructor of some sort so that all your talent wasn't wasted. Thanks for your service to our country Dale and look forward to more videos. I have done several old early 70's Suzuki's and am currently doing an old 1970 Honda CT70. Take care sir

@@mikelauer8891 Thanks Mike, looks like you're staying busy with all those bikes, I have been looking for a vintage small cc Honda to include on my channel, they are really hard to find in my neck of the woods. Those were great bikes, not real fast compared to a 2 stroke, but fun, nevertheless.

Think so too Mark.

Yes sir, yes, the other seal is on backorder, probably have to get it from Japan. Think I have found one at a seal and bearing supplier. See which one gets here first.

Welcome

Yes, it is fine till I give it some throttle then it starts to run like its running out of gas. Think that float is still not right. I have a factory manual now for it. Not a word about how or what specs for the float. Strange.

Alright Now.

Think maybe your right Frank, probably just as much work though.

Hey Don, I know doesn't sound like a screamer anymore. I can always pull it back out. It's a fun bike.

Oh, geezz Dean, another one of those British sayings. You're going to have to help me with this one brother.

@@montana2strokeracerDale, Blighty is an old soldier's word for Britain.

@@retromechanicalengineer roger that my friend.

Hey Stan, yes hence its name the Trailmaster, this was before the lever to change from high range to low range. You have to actually change the sprockets. The small one will get you to 60 mph, the large one will get you to 35 mph, but up some really steep and rugged hill. Thanks for stopping by.

Great explanation and makes a lot of sense.

Hey Gi Gi, I did not see the link. I have looked on there and everything I see will not fit. They list it for the YL2, but they also list it for the YL1, these two have different screw locations, think the YL1 is about 92 mm between screws, and the YL2 is 102 mm. Thanks for hanging out in the shop with me.

@@montana2strokeracer Frank here, i had a trick once wheer the emblem was right and the holes were off, just glued in a couple cut off screw heads then super glued the emplem looked perfect. of coures when the next guy tries to unscrew big suprise.

@@frankdillon6127 Dang Frank, I may have to pull a fast one like that.

@@montana2strokeracer No worries Dale, I assumed they were all the same! I better check my specs and compare too before I order some myself.

Believe me Frank, I still draw lots of diagrams and pictures.

Of course you are, welcome
