c15 distributer model, kick start shaft oil leak....

[rimmer]

C15 1964 distributer engine.
Hi,
Can anybody help me with an oil leak from the kick start shaft. the shaft runs straight in the casing, there is no bush.
The casing must be worn. There is no oil build up behind the outer case. just oil seeping from around kick start shaft.
Anybody else had the same problem...?
thanks
Kev

Hi kev

Yep I got the same issue with my C15. Its the only small leak I have on mine now after the rebuild. Someone will come along soon and tell us how to fix it, I hope!
