Hello

I have a question is there a gasket or something else between the timing case and the crankshaft. Please look the picture. Or is there nothing and the cranshaft is directly on the timing case.



Thanks for any replays.

Hi Mitja...No, there is no gasket or seal of any type there...The tube (quill) just fits into the end of the crankshaft when the cover is fitted....Ian

I thought also that there is nothing but its better to ask as have some problems :)

Thanks Ian.

Definitely...When I was training as an Engineer (many years back ) every engineering drawing I was given had a note in the corner..'If in doubt..ASK'....

Sound advice then and it still is....Ian

Ian, is it not so, with the flywheels rotating, the oil is forced out towards the big end with such a force, that there is no time for any leaks developing around the tube??

Cheers,

Hi Mitja,here's one i found on Google,as it turns out its LA Kevins web page.
Scroll down the photos and there is a picture of a timing case with one fitted.
the part number is 66-1923.

I hope Kevin doesn't mind, Russells and Draganfly are listing these,
hope this helps, Cheers Rick

To be clear and to avoid any possible confusion, those are unrelated to the crankshaft quill and seal the cam spindle oil feed fitting...As stated there is no seal for the crankshaft oil feed...Ian
