Default RE: Another AE .15 problem

Dood,


I believe this is your engine:



It feeds on a mix that contains plenty of oil and has a shielded front bearing (i.e. not sealed)...
It should leak some oil; especially if it has a rather loose fit of the crankshaft in the crankcase (tolerances accumulate)...


I don't see it as a problem, but if it ever becomes one; you can replace that front bearing with a double contact-sealed version of the same size.

It should be a 10x19x5mm 6800-2RS bearing, which should have a C3 clearance.
