Rebuilding 1973 CT 3 175. I was wondering how do you replace the oil seal on the clutch actuator on the worm gear.

Didn't Mark T just answer this?

Looks like #madmark made two posts on the same subject.

There's no easy way to replace it, in fact it can't be done. Need a new worm gear plus a new arm & seal. Then fit seal to the worm & rivet the new arm on the the worm. Might be a right way & a wrong way to sit the arm on before riveting in relation to where the worm ends up. If ya go that way then observe where the start point of the worm is in relation to the arm. You can only get it right or wrong & no in between as the arm fits on two flats, so no multiple choice's. Personally i'd forget it & just grease it up & carry on. I's not a critically important seal. The good thing is that CT3 has the nylon outer worm that you can turn, then turn harder & it takes the seal out with the arm & worm. Grease it up & grease the outer worm internal then just wind it back in & wind hard at the end for the seal to be pulled right home. also might need to start it on the right spiral. Depends how many spirals it has but i'm guessing 3. I've had a new one hanging on the tool board for about 45 years haha, i'll go look if its still there. I'll post this then see if i should edit it.

Yeah i meant when winding it back in-- With it starting winding back in on the correct start spiral you'll end up with the arm down & hard home so seal is pushed in & the two retaining screws in the right place on the outside of the case. Then your cable will be ok fitted. Wrong spiral & arm might end up halfway up & right home so cable will have an inch of slack. Good thing is with the nylon outer worm if you start it wrong you can just wind it out then go around one spiral & wind in again.
Man, i can complicate instructions for simple jobs.

Sometimes people seem to post same question multiple times... not sure if they don't see reply or maybe they just keep asking until they get an answer they like? 

Yeah sorry about reposting ! I was having trouble with my phone.

Wow! Not like Yamaha ! Think I'll grease it up and
reuse !
Thanks for the info
