    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I?m kind of shocked that you needed to get the o ring from Suzuki, Napa or the equitant didn?t have a o ring in the right size? dose needing a o ring from the dealer happen a lot?
 
O-Ring

O-Ring

Did you replace the seal too? I've had several leak oil around the tach drive gear.
 
I like using Suzuki parts for these type of things. It was three bucks give or take. Worth the aggrevation to me, rather than searching around trying to find one to fit. I got a cam cover gasket as well, but I'm pretty sure it's this o-ring causing the leak.
I did not get the seal.......probably should have.:oNo biggie. If it continues to leak, I'll just replace it too.:)
 
The Suzuki O-ring is special for the tach gear - it has a flat edge.

Question for Larry: why did you start two threads for the same issue? All you have to do is reply to your own thread and add more photos in the second post. Nice photos by the way. Keep up the good work.:)
