[QUOTE="idl1975, post: 1304758, member: 95230"] Follow up question, I guess. If the ignition-side seal is shot, it will suck in air, so I gather you end up with a very lean mixture and then piston/ring damage. If it's the clutch-side seal, you will get extra oil in the lower chamber (and fuel in the transmission oil). Will this actually damage the piston/cylinder, or just (i) create smoke and foul plugs and (ii) contaminate your clutch with fuel? If the abov is true and I determine the dry seal is OK (no oil contamination inside the ignition cover), then presumably it would be safe (assuming I sacrifice the friction plates and don't mind a bit of smoke) to ride until I can schedule new seals and crank bearings? Sorry if this is a dumb question - I'm used to 4 strokes. ;) [/QUOTE]
