Last fall the motor was coughing and the like ignition and carb rebuild did little to help(good things to do anyway). Well I now found the problem and the lower crank seal is shot as in the spring is flopping around loose up in there. It is a '73 if that matters. I kind of looked through the manual for this and have some idea of what I am doing and am very mechanically inclined. Anyone have any pointers though, things to watch mistakes to avoid and the like. Manuals are fine and all but past experiance tells me they are usually either oversimplified or over complex and reallife experianced people can usually offer some good tips over and aabove the print.
