Hey guys im changing the seal seen here:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SUZUKI-GS500-GS-500-GEAR-CHANGE-SHAFT-OIL-SEAL-/400522831105?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts_13&hash=item5d41056501&_uhb=1
Im just wondering do i need to drain the oil for this or will there only be oil behind here when the engine is running? Cheers
I did this recently. you should be ok. drain if you like you can alwayus put it back in :)
Nope simple case of picking out the old seal with an o ring hook and pushing the new seal in with a seal driver or deep socket that's slightly smaller than the outer dia of the seal. Smear a little bit of high temp grease on the inner lips of the seal before you install and you'll be back on the road quick smart.
cheers :D
Did you have to remove the sprocket to be able to remove the seal?
Ummmm dunno I think so actually
Got the seal off, do you put a little bit of oil on the new seal?
